- 2. EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT COOKING I LEARNED DURING PHYSICS CLASS DR. IR. MICHAEL PEETERS, BELL LABS
- 5. Epicurious
- 6. Epicurious Loves good food and dining. Not only physics.
- 8. 1. Fundamentals. Everything else is combinatorics.
- 10. 2. Be prepared. It is not because you know what to cook that you know how to cook it.
- 11. 3. The proof of the pudding…
- 12. 3. The proof of the pudding… Not everything is what it looks like.
- 13. 4. The thrill of discovery.
- 14. 4. The thrill of discovery. And of getting it completely wrong.
- 15. 5. It’s not about the recipe.
- 16. 5. It’s not about the recipe. It’s the inspiration and passion you add.
- 17. 6. There are many cookbooks.
- 18. 6. There are many cookbooks. They cannot replace the wisdom of the cook, nor the stories that she tells while cooking.
- 19. 7. I love to cook with vodka.
- 20. 7. I love to cook with vodka. I sometimes even add it to the food.
- 21. “No matter how much creativity goes into it, cooking is an art. Or perhaps I should say a craft. It abides by absolute rules, physics, chemistry, etc. and that means that unless you understand the science you cannot reach the art.” Alton Brown
Editor's Notes
- You know what this feels like. Ladies and Gents, when I was younger, students in the first year of physics. We’d grill them. This is some cosmic Karma, I guess. Anyway - the topic for show &tell
- lightning talk had 14 slides classic mistake: way too many slides Frances killed x of them - yes, my wife knows my physics professor - that tells you something allready. Breek ei. Gebruikte Irina eigenlijk slides ?
- Irina never used slides. But 7 minutes and only the blackboard is hard. Let’s pretend this is a blackboard - reason I had was to many is that I wanted physics examplles. This talk could be about a demonstration - Jan asked this But that would not teach you about Irina.
- and I could quip about how Irina was a master approximator (mainly because most of what she taught cannot be exactly solved.) Demonstration - break eggs. But that would not teach you about the important things Irina taught me. What does Irina have to say about cooking.
- And I think she projected this on her students. Some people seem to believe about the 7 rules of X.

- Seven minutes, seven rules First thing I learned whas about fundamentals But if you master the fundamentals, no problem.
- Best example is during exams. You remember - get to convince her to pick your own question - and make you think you got away with it. exams with Irina. pick your own question you need to train, exercise… H

- In the late years: Quantum physics applies to a lot of things. You do not know what something is until you measure. Try new things. Irina was a master at convicing people to try. If she hadn’t me, I would not be here. what is this - after my second year, I thought I had egg on my face (pick up eggs) - throw in audience… - she conviced me otherwise - imagine my surprise when I passed. went into PhD

- Later on, phD - again much freedom. Enjoy the thrill Errors never get documented. Or corrected. Once you went off the deep end, you realize
- Generalize this, you know that
- There are many cuisinse and cookbooks And there is one last - real culinary rule that came from the stories. In the trend of live a little.

- The final thing I’d like to share. Life a litte. Summarizing, these rules are about really understand science/life/cooking - not its techniques. I’d like to close with a quote from Alton Brown
- I am very grateful to have met that woman that understands the science and the 7 rules. Fundamentals - be prepared - The proof in in the pudding - The thrill of discovery - It’s not the recipe - There are many cookbooks - Try cooking with vodka. Thank you for understanding the science and teaching us the art.
