Scientist and gourmet Harold McGee’s On Food and Cooking is credited with inspiring a generation of creative chefs including Heston Blumenthal and tonight’s guest, Barcelona ‘creative cuisine’ star, Jordhi Artal. McGee’s book was revolutionary in examining everything that happened in the kitchen from a rigorously scientific viewpoint, discovering the truth about the physics and chemistry of cuisine, and on the way kickstarting the movement that became known as “molecular gastronomy”.
