How come he is not the first author then?
Is this the Bee mocking the Nobel Peace Prize committee?
The link looks legit.
Sounds like he got the prize for “discovering” corn flour, as some Asian call it, is a thickener.
It continues to undermine the Nobel Prize for giving an award for something that is common knowledge.
I’d call it a plagiarism, but obviously such a basic process cannot be patented.
Betty Crocker deserves like 200 prizes for her cookbook.
Hey, I can make paste! (Glue) You can eat it! I wouldn’t let it sit overnight though....stinks.
Soooooo ......
... make a bechamel cheese sauce with water, instead of learning how to cook the recipe. Got it.
Heck. Based on this winning “discovery” why not just make a regular bechamel with milk, as in homemade mac and cheese?
I mean, any pasta with cheese sauce is mac and cheese, yeah?
This is the best research idea I’ve heard.
I hope this revolutionizes my frozen food choices at the market.
Great science or a friggn decent chef!

If it's not available, then it's just unschlock a jar of Rao's Alfredo sauce. Grill some chicken (the trick is to brine the meat first), steam a little broccoli or spinach, back a couple of slices of bacon on the grill along with the chicken, plop all but the bacon above into the sauce pan and stir it up. Garnish with fresh basil and crunched up bacon.
It's almost not awful.
