A Modernist Breakfast on NBC’s Today Show

Press, Update, Video

While most peo­ple in both New York and Seattle were still asleep, Nathan, Max, Johnny, Anjana, and Shelby were at the Today Show stu­dio get­ting ready for a live seg­ment on Modernist Cuisine. The team prepped for three live demos: striped mush­room omelet, pis­ta­chio ice cream, and cen­trifuged pea but­ter on toast.

The seg­ment aired live at around 8:45 this morn­ing and lasted a lit­tle more than four min­utes (which felt like a life­time in the stu­dio). Nathan did his best to fit it all in, which – as you can see for your­self below – made for a lively and engag­ing segment!

The team’s whirl­wind New York tour con­tin­ues today with a lun­cheon pre­sen­ta­tion at Hearst this after­noon, and a din­ner pre­sen­ta­tion at the Core Club tonight. Wednesday’s itin­er­ary includes an in-studio inter­view on Martha Stewart Radio in the morn­ing, and the Colbert Report tomor­row night. Wish the team luck and stay tuned!

  1. Everything I see and hear about Modernist Cuisine is thrilling. Obviously, it is cut­ting edge technology.

  2. It is claimed you have stated in the books “organic food is no health­ier than non-organic food.” How did you prove this to be true?

    • Try prov­ing that organic food is bet­ter than non organic...!-seems dumb but try it and hear out read out this round­about stat­ment although as any chef will agree the qual­ity of food is most impor­tant not it’s fair trade or organic sta­tus much of the quan­ti­fiers for organic don’t mat­ter to the end food qual­ity in fact qual­ity is harder to guar­an­tee with organic pro­duce and you’ll be pay­ing a silly pre­mium.. how­ever the pro­duc­tion of GM foods etc. are usu­ally des­tined for the more “bud­get” prod­ucts espe­cially when it comes to the base com­mod­ity so aval­i­bil­ity of qual­ity foods are the deciders not this fad­dish idea of organic food with halo over it..

  4. Why post this page link on a page called a Recipe Library? There is no recipe here.
