Why Bread Rises and Cheese Melts: The Hidden Chemistry That Transforms Flour, Milk, and Heat into Flavor - Softcover
Synopsis
Every kitchen is a working laboratory, and every meal is a chemistry experiment we eat. Why does a lump of wet flour swell into an airy loaf? Why does a cold slice of cheese turn to molten gold under heat, while an egg white does the exact opposite and sets hard? The answers lie in a hidden world of yeast, gluten, proteins, and reacting molecules that most of us never stop to notice.
In this vivid, accessible book, Edward Callenford takes you inside the everyday science of cooking: the living yeast that inflates dough with bubbles of gas, the elastic web of gluten that traps them, the browning Maillard reaction that builds deep flavor and aroma, the gentle coagulation that turns milk into curds and cheese, and the chemistry of taste and smell that lets us enjoy it all. Every idea is grounded in real ingredients, real reactions, and simple things you can watch happen on your own countertop.
Featuring original diagrams that make invisible molecules easy to picture, this is a book for cooks, curious eaters, and anyone who has ever pulled a loaf from the oven and wondered how it happened. You will never look at your kitchen—or your next meal—the same way again.
