Beschreibung
Preparing and consuming food is a favorite activity for most of us. It's no wonder that a large number of various cookbooks full of traditional or experimental recipes are constantly being published. However, cooking is primarily a chemical process, and therefore has much in common with chemistry. In this book, you won't find any new recipes, but you will learn a lot of interesting facts about food – from its chemical composition to the reason for pounding a schnitzel, and even why a worm always chooses the most beautiful apple. A significant portion is also dedicated to various chemical substances (commonly known as 'E-numbers') that are added to food. The author, a professor of biochemistry, does not defend them but clarifies some opinions on their exaggerated danger.
