Abstract

Hidden within ordinary ingredients, seasonings, and dishes are fascinating seeds for experiments. In this book, we have carefully selected ideas and procedures that are "easy to try at home" and "ultimately edible". We introduce double delicious ideas and steps that can be enjoyed in one bite! We also provide explanations that delve into the question of "why does it happen". This book can be used as a reference for recording and discussing with photos, enjoying with family and friends, or as a resource for independent research projects.
