The Geek’s Guide to Cooking
Maybe cooking isn’t necessarily the first thing that springs to mind when one thinks of geeks and their hobbies, but the two really are a match made in heaven. Cooking involves all sorts of geek-friendly skills like attention to detail and the ability and desire to follow a precise set of instructions. Add in the science-heavy food trend of molecular gastronomy, and suddenly uniting cookery and geekdom seems like something that should have happened a long time ago.
Thanks to the marriage of food and technology, geeks can now download apps to help them with their cooking and afterward blog, tweet and post Facebook status updates with the results.
No more must geeks rely on junk food and take-out for sustenance. Cooking offers opportunities to tinker with chemistry and gadgetry and devise creative solutions to complex problems. In fact, the high-flying world of the celebrity chef might just be the geek stronghold of tomorrow.
