Harold McGee | Smells, Flavors and the Science of Cooking - Ep. 153

My guest today is Harold McGee. He has been writing for more than four decades about the science of food and cooking: where our foods come from, what they are, and how cooking transforms them.  

He is best known for his seminal book On Food and Cooking: The Science and Lore of the Kitchen.  

His latest book “Nose Dive: A Field Guide to the World's Smells” came out in 2020 and it’s all about smells: the aromas of food and drink, but also the many other flying bits of the world that scent our lives.
