Why just create kitchen concoctions when you can whip up a delectable dish to enjoy with friends or family? Divided into eight courses (chapters), each course offers an array of recipes with ingredients and supply lists, step-by-step instructions, safety tips and hints, and an explanation of the science behind the food. Each recipe also identifies the challenge level, allergen alerts, time needed, and yield. Dazzling drinks, snacks, dips and sauces, main dishes, sides, pastries, desserts, and more are included. A great way to apply scientific principles to everyday life and maybe entice a picky eater to expand his/her palette! ~Deanne
