Cooking and Science
with WGBH Studios
Great cooks aren't magicians. But they do understand what is behind the fundamental principles of cooking that guide them through their kitchens - science. Join us Thursday, November 8, 2012 for a special behind-the-scenes look at the relationship between science and good cooking.
The important role of science in cooking will be highlighted at this special event with a private showing of a new NOVA scienceNOW television program -- Can I Eat That? -- all about the science behind some of your favorite foods. This new show was produced by WGBH for the Public Broadcasting System and will be premiere on WGBH on October 31st, and will be shown again on November 21st.
Culinary Guild members and our friends are invited to meet some of the stars and producers of the show at the WGBH studios. We will start the evening with a champagne reception, followed by the special private showing of Can I Eat That?: Secrets of the Turkey, and culminate with a panel discussion on the role of science in cooking.
Some of our special guests include Julia Cort, Executive Producer of the NOVA scienceNOW series for WGBH; Jack Bishop, Editorial Director for America's Test Kitchen; Doug Hamilton, Producer of the Can I Eat That? episode of the NOVA scienceNOW series; Dan Souza, chef and Associate Editor for America's Test Kitchen; and Guy Crosby, Science Editor for America's Test Kitchen.
This event will also highlight the new book on The Science of Good Cooking written by the Editors of America’s Test Kitchen and the Guild's own Guy Crosby, Ph. D. The authors of this new book were actively involved in the recording this new Nova ScienceNow program.
This exclusive event, available to all Culinary Guild members and friends, is just $60. The ticket price includes a champagne reception, a private showing of the new Nova ScienceNow program, and a copy of The Science of Good Cooking -- a brand-new release from America's Test Kitchen. A book signing will be held after the panel discussion.
Don’t miss this exciting event!
