2018 - Science Centre Learning Journey for 3NA students
(Molecular Gastronomy)

Cooking is both a science and art, and celebrity chefs have seeped their way into popular culture. People are realising that by understanding the chemistry behind various cooking methods, we can not only avoid common mistakes but make food taste so much better. Hence, our students went over to the Science Centre in 2018 to:

• learn what molecular gastronomy is

• learn and use some techniques used in molecular gastronomy: spherification and gelification

• recognise the importance of science and technology in food
