Review: "Using the same plain language that made the first What Einstein Told His Cook a hit, Robert L. Wolke combines the authority of a scientist with the clarity and wit of a great teacher. In this sequel, he continues to bridge the gap between the chemist and the cook, not to mention folks who are just plain curious about the world around them." "For Wolke, supermarkets are combat zones to be conquered through knowledge. By doing actual experiments to uncover the facts, he has debunked numerous old wives' tales and modern misconceptions. He can therefore dispense liberal doses of straight-from-the-shoulder advice to any perplexed consumer." "Included are more than 35 recipes by cooking teacher and food writer Marlene Parrish, designed to put all this knowledge into practical and appetizing use."--BOOK JACKET.
