About

Hello, I'm Chris Young. I'm the coauthor of the James Beard award winning books Modernist Cuisine with Nathan Myhrvold. I've also started companies like ChefSteps, and created products like the Joule sous vide circulator and the Combustion Predictive Thermometer. Before this I was the head development chef for Heston Blumenthal at The Fat Duck restaurant. And before that I studied mathematics and biochemistry, which has proven incredibly useful as a lifelong curious cook.
