food science

[shahar]

I'm intersted a lot in "whys" as opposed to
"hows". If any of you know of good web sites concerned with food science, I would be happy to know. I searched, but most sites concerend with "food-science" were academic and had nothing to offer to chefs.

Don't know about web sites, but "On Food and Cooking" is a great book for that kind of thing.

now that's the problem i don't live in the states, and have problem getting info from thos good magazine. That's why i'm using the net. I know one site with great info "fine cooking" - http://www.taunton.com/fc/index.htm
If any1 know any more good food-science sites it would be ever so helpful.

Harold Magee's "The Curious Cook" is the definitive source on kitchen science. This book should be readily available.
Good luck~
