Musing about Sherlock's kitchen skills, I had the idea of Sherlock discovering molecular gastronomy for Baker Street,
perhaps after John gave him a voucher for such course as a gift?
Sounds funny and promising, but I cannot write it.
Anybody?

Good idea. KP, what do you think? Dangerous chemical and physical experiments involving food. Followed by a candlelight dinner.

Oh no Susi......writing about molecular gastronomy would be way over my head - unfortunately, not my area or my division . I'm just not that smart.  But I bet you are!

But I love the idea of a bunsen burner light dinner!   Now that I might be able to work in somewhere.....

And I said "dangerous" and here you are.

You. It's always you. John Watson, you keep me right.

Sounds like fun. I would like to try. I don't know much about molecular gastronomy, but with some internet research it should work. If nobody else wants to take the challenge.

… and his friends and all his family and I’ve no idea why I’m telling you this.

I believe, KP, you are smart enough, only of course it is useful to know a bit about organic chemistry.
Looking forward to your burner light dinner story 

QE, brave girl! Good luck with your try! 

As romantic as Sherlock gets ...

Fine, I'll give it a try then. We'll see how romantic he can really get.

Would you mind if I also use the bunsen burner idea? It fits so perfectly into the story.

I've finished a rough draft. It's going to have three or four chapters and be completely crazy. But I still have to do the research for the cooking part and get the language and grammar right, that's going to take a while.

Yes, very much at the moment. It's fun. Although Mrs Hudson wouldn't find funny what Sherlock is doing to her kitchen.

If you can find any links to the chef Heston Blumenthal's work these might prove useful. He is well-known for using high level scientific techniques in his cooking e.g. dry ice/card ice.

Don't make people into heroes John. Heroes don't exist and if they did I wouldn't be one of them.

Yes, I "used" him for the story also but changed his name to "Vallefiori".

Very good. And it doesn't sound as evil as his real name.
