Here's an example of one study which found that other minerals play a role in the salty taste perception itself, and also discusses the non-salty volatile flavors present in different sea salts: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.co

The point of fancy salts is that they're not just NaCl -- sea salts, in particular, have a lot of other trace minerals with their own flavors (to say nothing of the texture -- generally not so important in flavoring a dish as in finish

Heh, this is, bluntly... untrue. In medicine, certain types of published studies are sometimes peer-reviewed, and sometimes people care about that, and that's about the extent of peer review as far as validity goes. Drug studies ar

This is bizarre. Insofar as this is solving a "problem", it's essentially solved by a Coravin, and I never thought I'd say this about the Coravin, but cheaper given that anyone who wants to do this will want to do with

Sorry for the next-day response, went to bed shortly after posting that. Long story short, this paper received a lot of press attention when it was published to the ACPD last summer for discussion: http://dotearth.blogs.nytimes.c

James Hansen is somewhat controversial, but this paper has been reviewed and accepted for publication in Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, and it's very serious: https://app.box.com/s/i4u002tbpcvkamj9wq4n8t1u8wxsj

One of my favorite examples of this is using Google Maps to find your way from Monument Valley to Natural Bridges or vice versa -- sends you right up/down the Moki Dugway, which despite being part of a state highway is not a road for e

This is more likely El Nino-related (the extremely strong El Nino currently in process is likely to make the East & South much warmer than usual), though of course worldwide temperature increases will compound to make the temperature hi

Fair point, it's somewhat hyperbolic phrasing. A perhaps somewhat retroactive defence: Surface contamination is deadly, particularly to bird/shore life, but dispersed oil is deadly throughout the water column (until it resurfaces

Preauthorization for use of dispersants had already been withdrawn for Prince William Sound (the only zone in Alaska where they had been preauthorized) by the Department of the Interior in 2008 following this consensus report: http:/&

This is, unfortunately, quite well-known in the oil spill management community. We've chosen to measure incident response using visible oil on the surface of the water, so the companies use a method which reduces that metric but cause

Blind (or double-blind) review in most of academia is inherently impossible -- the people qualified to do the review will generally be able to recognize who the paper must have come from. I agree that blinding would be preferable, but when

Ugh. This is exactly the type of poorly-informed response you generally get when people attempt to "read the data" for themselves with little to no understanding of the science behind it. Seems to be a lot of that going around H

It's a combination of temp & time -- 131F for four hours will pasteurize (and, conveniently, is below the coagulation temperature for both the white & yolk of eggs, so you can home-pasteurize eggs for mayo/etc with a water

This definitely seems complementary to rather than a replacement for sous vide cooking (especially in terms of e.g. gelatinizing collagen in rare meat, since you'd get oxidative off-flavors over the duration necessary using your device
