Do not missunderstand This. His purpose is knowledge of what append while cooking, not the way or where it is done.
One of his first discovery was the yellow part of an egg is cooked at 68C and white part at 63C. It seems nobody ever wonder about it!
The direct application of this knowledge is to make "perfect" boiled eggs. Simply put eggs in an oven at 65C. (You can do it at home, like I did ;-) )
Other example: He discovered that quicker an ice cream was frozen, smaller were cristals in it, and smaller critals are, better it taste.
Application: Some restaurants make "liquid nitrogen" ice-cream (you are breathing 4 time more nitrogen than oxygen, so no nitrogen is no dangerous). More diffcult to do at home :-s
This do not care about application (well, at least, he does not felt responsible of it). The knowledge is a key, that can open many doors. Some of his research are used for cooking jam or better cork (to avoid corked wine), not for try to poison the whole planet ;-)
