This book is 960 pages long (at least it has pictures) and has over 1200 Amazon reviews from a bunch of people who sure did love it. I have never seen so many stars. There must be a lot of science nerds who cook.
It's a heavy one so if you have Amazon Prime you will be glad.
Mr. Boomer really likes this book. This book makes me feel like I am having my head pinched in a vise.
Two science nerds on my list are getting this book for Christmas.

Yes. I know. Quoting myself is probably bad manners. And digging up a Christmas post after the New Year probably looks weird, too. But.........
I feel like I must try to get the word out to science nerds who cook and to the people who love them.......
The book I recommended in the above quote was a big hit......
But be warned, those science nerds who cook will be so thrilled with their new book that they might try to regale you with the wizardy wonders of sous vide cooking and various other tedious subjects.
Anyway, I just thought I would do a follow-up. It's definitely a niche market book, but I now know 3 cooking science nerds who are happily talking about it......Thank goodness they can talk to each other so I don't have to try to look fascinated.
So if you know somebody who might be "one of them" and maybe is having a birthday or something, I think giving the gift of
The Food Lab: Better Home Cooking Through Science might just make you look good.
