In The Ultimate Hamburger, scientists and cooks Nathan Myhrvold and Maxime Bilet of Modernist Cuisine describe in detail how they created their “ultimate hamburger”.
Modernist Cuisine recently published a high-end 6-volume book set, titled Modernist Cuisine: The Art and Science of Cooking, which is described as “a work destined to reinvent cooking”.
In Modernist Cuisine: The Art and Science of Cooking, Nathan Myhrvold, Chris Young, and Maxime Bilet—scientists, inventors, and accomplished cooks in their own right—have created a six-volume 2,400-page set that reveals science-inspired techniques for preparing food that ranges from the otherworldly to the sublime. The authors—and their 20-person team at The Cooking Lab—have achieved astounding new flavors and textures by using tools such as water baths, homogenizers, centrifuges, and ingredients such as hydrocolloids, emulsifiers, and enzymes.
