MSE 2300 - Science of Cooking: From Modern Cuisine to Soft Matter Science

Effective Start Date: 06/22/2023
We discuss how soft matter science, a new and growing area of materials science and engineering, underpins everyday cooking and haute cuisine. The goal is to use cooking to educate students about the fundamental concepts and behavior of soft materials. The benefit is that students will be able to interrelate cooking techniques and recipes to physical, chemical, and biological transformations in food.
