Description
Enzymes — biological catalysts that drive specific chemical reactions — are both the chef's tools and the chef's adversaries. Controlling enzyme activity (through temperature, pH, salt concentration, or inhibitors) allows specific, directed transformations. Uncontrolled enzyme activity produces browning, bitterness, over-tenderisation, or flavour loss.
