“Intermolecular interactions in Cheese and Ice Cream” The workshop is
geared to meet the needs of science educators working to design their own
experiments in food chemistry as well as those wishing to incorporate
the chemistry
of food into classroom or laboratory activities. It will provide the
participants
with a basic understanding of the connections between chemistry and food,
using milk as an example food. It includes a limited lecture with
theoretical overview and hands-on activities highlighting inter-molecular
interactions in milk and understanding chemical changes occurring during
preparation of cheese and ice-cream. Participants will receive resources to
plan their own food chemistry experiments.
