Cooking is all about the science of physics and chemistry within the context of indigenous cooking. Over the centuries, humans have learned how to exploit the natural phenomenon of energy transfer through heat for the purpose of transforming food from one form to another form to facilitate the experience of food consumption, particularly where food, fun, faith, and fellowship intermingle.

Produktbeschreibung
Cooking is all about the science of physics and chemistry within the context of indigenous cooking. Over the centuries, humans have learned how to exploit the natural phenomenon of energy transfer through heat for the purpose of transforming food from one form to another form to facilitate the experience of food consumption, particularly where food, fun, faith, and fellowship intermingle. The Nigerian cooking and eating phenomena are typical of what food is all about. Thermodynamics is the science of heat transfer between two objects. Heat and steam provide the beat, to which molecules of ingredients dance to create gastronomical delights for dining tables around the world. Biology, Chemistry, and Physics play direct and intertwining roles in our existence and activities, including gastronomic pursuits. To galvanize ingredients to create a marvel for the nose and the palate is, indeed, a testimony to the inner workings of science, fueled by fire, steam, and molecules. The transformation from solid to liquid and then to vapor makes physics in the kitchen fun and gratifying. This book on "Do Me A Flavor" celebrates flavorful cooking in the Nigerian culture, just like other indigenous cultures around the world. Enjoy the texts and sights of the book's contents, even if the food aroma cannot emanate from the pages of the book.
