As your family and neighbors start to get used to your new grill – and it won’t take long! – they’ll start to approach you with a slightly swoony look, perhaps, as they come to associate your new hobby with pleasant memories of the last savory meal. And your neighbors will start to love how you’re making the air smell. You’ll soon be learning tricks of the trade, testing out how different foods taste with different marinades, and come to see that there is a very exact science to this, and of course, some of it is pure art. As you begin to look into the science of cooking, however, you’ll start to understand how flavors work.
The American Chemical Society met in the Summer of 2009 to discuss the recent theories about food and food science, concentrating on what happens at the barbecue. Among the famous guests was Shirley Corriher, the witty author and food science expert. They discussed all sort of issues about cooking outdoors, articulating the way science works in food preparation, which is often something that chefs can become intuitive about; knowing exactly when to add extra marinade for, example. In terms of flavor, sweet tastes tend to intensify the next flavor, and salt reduces the bitterness of the next flavor. These little tidbits are very useful in preparing a meal, so that you can really make the experience a gift for all those involved.
