I write about the science of food and cooking: where our foods come from, what they are and what they're made of, and how cooking transforms them. On this site you can also find out about me, my books and my column in the New York Times, and the story of the Erice Workshops on Molecular and Physical Gastronomy. And there's a page devoted to my sister and first illustrator, Ann McGee Kurz.
