Harvard Book Store welcomes back the cast of America's Test Kitchen for our annual ATK event at the Brattle Theatre.
JACK BISHOP, JULIA COLLIN DAVISON, BRIDGET LANCASTER, LISA MCMANUS, and ADAM RIED will present ATK's latest cookbooks, including the evening's featured title, Cook's Science: How to Unlock Flavor in 50 of our Favorite Ingredients—the all-new companion to the New York Times–bestselling The Science of Good Cooking, highlighting 50 of our favorite ingredients and the (sometimes surprising) science behind them.
About Cook's Science
Each chapter explains the science behind one of the 50 ingredients in a short, informative essay—topics ranging from pork shoulder to apples to quinoa to dark chocolate—before moving onto an original (and sometimes quirky) experiment, performed in our test kitchen and designed to show how the science works. The book includes 50 dynamic, full-page color illustrations, giving in-depth looks at individual ingredients, "family trees" of ingredients, and cooking techniques like sous vide, dehydrating, and fermentation. The 400+ foolproof recipes included take the science into the kitchen, and range from crispy fried chicken wings to meaty-tasting vegetarian chili, coconut layer cake to strawberry rhubarb pie.

Walking from the Harvard Square T station: 10 minutes
As you exit the station, cross Mass. Ave. and proceed along Brattle St. Follow Brattle St. as it curves to the right in Brattle Square (follow the sidewalk on the right side of the street). The Brattle will be on the left-hand side of the street. The building is shared with Algiers Cafe and Alden & Harlow Restaurant, and the theatre entrance is on the left side of the building—look for the sidewalk poster case and marquee.
