Molecular Cuisine<\/h1>\n

The term molecular cuisine<\/em> was coined in 2002 by Davide Cassi and chef Ettore Bocchia to describe a method of gastronomic research based on the study of the physical and chemical properties of food. In 2003 Cassi and Bocchia drew up the Manifesto of Italian Molecular Cuisine<\/strong>, included in the book Il gelato estemporaneo<\/em> (Sperling & Kupfer, 2005) and its Spanish edition La ciencia en los fogones<\/em> (Trea, 2005) \u2014 the world’s first manual on the subject, exhibited in the permanent collection of the Fundaci\u00f3 elBulliFoundation.<\/p>\n

The techniques developed at the Gastronomic Physics Laboratory include glucose frying, egg curd, impromptu ice cream with liquid nitrogen and cryogrinding. In 2007, with Fulvio Pierangelini, Cassi developed dry pre-cooking of legume and soft wheat flours, a technique presented at Identit\u00e0 Golose 2007 and Lo Mejor de la Gastronom\u00eda 2008.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
