Chemistry of Christmas cooking

from Lost in Science

It’s a festive food episode, as Chris digs into the science of Christmas pudding, particularly how it’s cooked so differently to regular cakes thanks to physics and chemistry; and Stu digs even deeper into one of the chemical reactions involved, the Maillard reaction that makes cooked food brown and tasty.
