capturing 'Modernist Cuisine' - photo gallery

The New York Times has a lovely photo gallery from the book Modernist Cuisine: The Art and Science of Cooking, by Nathan Myhrvold, Chris Young, and Maxime Bilet. The pics are outstanding, and the book sounds like a fascinating reference for odd and inventive food preparation techniques. I don't know the authors and haven't read it, but it seems quite worth checking out... if one has a spare $500.

For now, at least some of the delicious images are free to view!
