My name is Jason Logsdon and I'm a passionate home cook who loves to try new things, especially when it comes to cooking. However, I'm not the type of cook who enjoys trying out experiments just to see what works. I'll let Ferran Adria and Nathan Myhrvold handle that. I'd much rather take existing knowledge, distill it down to easy-to-follow concepts, and apply it successfully to my own cooking. Then I can share that knowledge with you so you can amaze your family and friends!

Unfortunately, while being beautiful to look at, most of the modernist cooking and sous vide literature can't be described as easy-to-follow, especially for a beginner in modernist cooking. I struggled to find anywhere that explained the foundation or basic building blocks of modernist cooking. This led me to do my own research, start this website, and write several books.
