  1. RE: mastodon.online/@SRDas/1165566

    If you'd like to make this earl grey tea flavored chocolate mousse (or 'chantilly') - or for that matter chocolate mousse in any flavor* you like - here's the recipe and instructional video (and explanation of the #Science ).
    And yes indeed it will take you <10 mins to make the chocolate mousse/chantilly in any flavor...

    *coffee, red wine, lemonade, garam masala - are some that work well

  2. The chemical reactions inherent in baking require a precise adherence to procedural standards to ensure structural integrity and flavor balance.

    "Common Baking Mistakes Beginners Should Avoid." For those interested in gastronomy, home economics, and the technical aspects of food preparation, this is an excellent resource.

  3. Details are everything.
    The sole difference when making Indian Paneer versus Mexican Queso Fresco is 30°F in when you add the acid to the milk.
    The chemistry at the two different temperature is so profoundly different that they both have different cooking and melting properties once completed.
    Paneer is harder and resists melting and the Queso Fresco is soft and melts (think quesadillas).

  4. Oh hey - found an archived version of the #Pittsburgh Post-Gazette article from 2010 about my #KitchenChemistry course.

    Somewhat flattering article I'll add (even if I'm being shameless and self-promoting). I do hope to keep at this for #SciComm and Outreach even if offering the course has gotten harder. Was a lot of work but fun (and students' joy & learning & enthusiasm kept me going those days- well, till 2017)
