CH125 - Edible Experiments

An experimental and hands-on approach to applied chemistry (as see in cooking). Cooking may be the oldest and most widespread application of chemistry and recipes may be the oldest practical result of chemical research. Students will perform edible experiments to illustrate some chemical principles, including extraction, denaturation, and phase changes. This is a hybrid course: cooking is done outside of class in the student's kitchen. Designed for non-science majors.
