Hi all, This is not the article I will be bringing tonight but I thought it was -somewhat- interesting to share :)http://www.cnbc.com/id/31892781/Big_Mac_As_Haute_Cuisine
From Wikipedia: 'Hervé This's area of scientific research is molecular gastronomy. That is the science of culinary phenomena (more precisely, looking for the mechanisms of phenomena occurring during culinary transformations)(...)' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herv%C3%A9_This
Now that you know who Hervé This is, here is an article entitled 'Foor for Tomorrow?': http://www.nature.com/embor/journal/v7/n11/full/7400850.html
The last Chinese Chef Author Nicole Mones "In drunken prawns in the Shanghai style, for example, the prawns were not quite dead when eaten but so inebriated from being soaked in wine that they lay perfectly still for your chopsticks. No Chinese diner would flinch at the faint flutter of movement in the mouth. On the contrary. This was the summit of freshness". Enjoy your chinese meal !
