A scientific report, inspired by an episode of “Seinfeld,” may cause football fans to take a second look at that communal bowl of dip.
--notes--
I just hit that episode the other day...I can never dip anything into salsa without thinking of that show.

The Invisible Ingredient in Every Kitchen

The Curious Cook - The Invisible Ingredient in Every Kitchen

Every cook relies every day on the power of heat to transform food — but most don’t understand it.
OF all the ingredients in the kitchen, the most common is also the most mysterious.
It’s hard to measure and hard to control. It’s not a material like water or flour, to be added by the cup. In fact, it’s invisible.
It’s heat.
This is always the biggest challange for me as a cook! Thought I would share this great article from the Times.
