About
This is a blog about cooking with a science spin (don’t worry – nothing too technical!). I’m hoping to share my experiences in the kitchen that will help make your cooking adventures a little less scary.
In this blog you will find:
- How to get started in the kitchen
- Tips for impressing your family and friends with simple, yummy recipes
- Explanations of terms that will help you be a better cook
- Recipes for some make-at-home beauty products
- Some of my favorites in the kitchen (and maybe at the beauty counter too)
About the author:
Cooking Chemist is written by Shannon Romanowski – a chemist by trade but a chef at heart. Shannon studied chemistry in college and went on to be a formulator for a major beauty care company. She taught herself how to cook but quickly learned that a lot of the skills she acquired in the lab applied to her cooking. She did not go to culinary school, nor did she spend much time in the kitchen as a child. However, she was lucky enough to have parents that introduced her to fine dining at an early age and has been a self-proclaimed foodie ever since! As a young adult, she really discovered her passion for cooking and found that her scientific background helped her in the kitchen more than she ever could have imagined.
