” The note by note cuisine, it is the same thing as the music synthesis “, ” says Hervé This, the physical-chemist. To get a violin sound, 200 years ago, we had to use… a violin and a bow. In the same way, we used — or one always uses — carrots, and the beef for cooking. However, since then, the physicists (from Jean-Baptiste Fourier transform) are able to break down the sound waves pure. 100 years ago, chemists have succeeded in analyzing the carrots, these foods consist of water, cellulose, pectins, etc
fifty years ago, appeared the first music synthesis — music note-for-note in any way — created usingcomputers occupying whole rooms. Today, there are synthesizers for just over 20 euros in the stores of toys. To the radio, is almost more diffused than the music of synthesis.
In a similar way, note by note cuisine of ingredients such as water, cellulose, pectins, sugars or amino acids to build a food. Thus, it can be custom built and it becomes possible to imagine of foods that do not exist in nature. Tastes never before experienced, color ever seen, smells new textures new : so this is what promises to cuisine note to note.
many high schools, hoteliers already incorporate cooking classes, note-for-note in their standard education, a little bit everywhere in the world. Maybe this new kitchen will help feed the 10 billion d’human beings, which will populate the Earth by 2050.
