Thanks to
Bookslut, which is pretty much my favorite blog ever, I learned about Modernist Cuisine - a ridiculous, beautiful behemoth of a cookbook/cooking manual. While my cooking style is distinctly un-modern and (I suspect) un-modernist, I loved browsing
the book's website, looking at pictures of decadent food, and getting inspired by the audacity of over-the-top cooking. I'm also reminded that, as I perfect certain recipes and techniques, there's still so much I don't understand about the scientific underpinnings of my experiments. I would love to live in a world where I had both the money to buy this book and time to really explore it.
