It tells the history of food through its tools across different eras and continents to present a fully rounded account of humans' evolving relationship to kitchen technology. From the birth of the fork in Italy as it discovered pasta, to culture wars over spoons in Restoration England, and tests for how to choose the perfect pan, this book examines the incredible creations that have shaped how and what we cook. Encompassing inventors, scientists, cooks and chefs, this is the previously unsung history of our kitchens.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 643.3 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 643.3 Wi Checked In Add Copy to MyList
