My guest today is Harold McGee. He has been writing for more than four decades about the science of food and cooking: where our foods come from, what they are, and how cooking transforms them.  He is best known for his seminal book On Food and Cooking: The Science and Lore of the Kitchen.  His latest book “Nose Dive: A Field Guide to the World's Smells” came out in 2020 and it’s all about smells: the aromas of food and drink, but also the many other flying bits of the world that scent our lives.Show Notes:Check out Harold’s Website: https://www.curiouscook.comHarold on Twitter: @Harold_McGeeCheck out Harold’s Books:Nose Dive: A Field Guide to the World's Smells On Food and Cooking: The Science and Lore of the Kitchen The Curious Cook: More Kitchen Science and LoreKeys to Good Cooking: A Guide to Making the Best of Foods and RecipesSavoring the WorldHarold McGee's James Beard Award for Who's WhoCulinary Institute of America: https://www.ciachef.eduEnjoy 35% OFF New West Knife WorksEl Bulli Restaurant: http://www.elbulli.infoAlinea Restaurant: https://www.alinearestaurant.comChef Kyle Connaughton's Website and TwitterChef Heston Blumenthal's Website and InstagramChef Elwyn BoylesChef Grant AchatzHubert ReevesHour of Our Delight: Cosmic Evolution, Order, and Complexity BookChef Fritz Blank and Deux Cheminees Restaurant in PhiladelphiaLearn more about Vanillin Molecule—If you come across something you ended up having to search for, send me a message to help make this Show Notes better!—?
