COOKING FOR THE NEW MARS

&ldquo,Cooking for the New Mars&rdquo, is a theoretical cookbook that looks at the way common recipes will evolve once we establish a habitat on the surface of the red planet.  ,Deep-frying will be right-out, I&rsquo,m afraid, and bacon is going to become the stuff of myth and legend. , Right now the primary focus in research is on foods that can be consumed in space, which these days are predominantly MRE-style packages.  ,Once we hit ground, however, things are going to have to change. A little bit of tongue-in-cheek cookery, ingredients a little outside the norm, but thoroughly space-worthy and an eye for the way tastes and chefs change to suit their environments make this a must-have for the experimental chef and the science-fiction fan._,
