- Summary:
- Is baking basic chemistry? Are ingredients basic biology? And is cooking basic math? If you can't tell a tsp from a Tbsp, you're likely to get a pancake when you wanted a soufflé. Basic math skills are needed to help you properly prepare a recipe your guests will enjoy, to convert your favorite recipe's serving size, or to determine the best value when comparison shopping at the grocery store. Join Matt the Mathematical Cook, a fun and lively host who will multiply, divide, measure and whip up a few recipes in the process in Math in the Kitchen: Do You Measure Up? Divided into 4 chapters for easy viewing with options to view standard or metric measurements, the program includes: Overview - how to read a recipe, Measuring and Equivalents - shows how to measure and common equivalents, Conversions - allows students to practice increasing and decreasing recipes, Cost Comparisons - students use price and size to determine what is the best buy.
