Food Nerd answers your science-y questions

Why doesn’t my whole wheat bread ever rise properly? Why do recipes ask you to separate flour/dry ingredients from wet ones? What the heck is cream of tartar and can I just use baking powder instead?

Because "160.9344-kilometer diet aspirer" doesn't sound quite as good.

For years I scoffed at risotto as having some kind of early-1990s restaurant-chic tackiness to it, but I know now I was wrong. Risotto is so deliciously silky and comforting, so easy and so versatile, it’s the perfect veggie-user-upper.

I’ve been deep-frying for ages and I’ve never burnt anything, but I approach the process with reverence and awe. Never turn your back on boiling oil, and make sure no children come near the stove. Do not answer the phone, run a bath, or go outside to weed the garden while you’ve got pakoras cooking. Don’t wear long flowing sleeves, and tie your hair back, for heaven’s sake. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
