Chemistry Kitchen Explodes on the Foodie Scene

On December 8, interim dean and chemist David Laude joined chef Josh Watkins at the AT&T Executive Education and Conference Center for their annual Chemistry Kitchen. Hilarity, and edibility, ensued. The chef and his team whipped up smoking cocktails, salmon with a cryo-poached meringue, pork belly and two desserts to die for. Laude showed the audience how many calories are in a corn chip, cooked sausages over a multi-hued flame, created a thunderstorm, and made pickles sparkle with light.
