Molecular Gastronomy Made Easy

Molecular gastronomy. What is it and why are we talking about this? Trust me with this one, this term is used more often in these modern times than ever. It involves two of my favorite topics besides design, food and science. Molecular gastronomy put simple is experimenting with food within the realms of science. Science tries to explain the physical and chemical transformations of foods when cooked. This includes melting, freezing, boiling, steaming and so on. It's pretty much a creative way to rethinking the food you're already used to. Mainly the way it looks as in it's form you're used to. You can turn any food into something entirely different. This brings a new way of looking at the foods we grew up with and have come to known. Food doesn't always have to be something you overlook. It should be fun. You should be allowed to experiment with your food and create something only you could dream up and devour.
