This book, Kitchen the country of Brillat-Savarin, contains a chapter entitled "The culinary science," where we find the quotation from the President to the Court of Cassation Henrion de Pansey:
"I do not regard science as sufficiently honored, nor adequately represented as a cook will not sit at the first class of the Institute ".
Forgive me: I am very opposed to this idea!
Indeed, in 1795, the Constitution of 22 August and the Law of 25 October on the organization of public instruction shall establish a National Institute of Science and Arts, which includes the former academies, no organic link between them in the Old Regime.
National Institute consists of three classes: physical and mathematical sciences; Moral and Political Sciences, Literature and Fine Arts. Scientists are the most numerous (60 out of 144 members).
The first class is divided into ten sections (math, crafts, astronomy, experimental physics, chemistry, natural history and mineralogy, botany and zoology, medicine and surgery, veterinary science and rural economy).
It is unclear what the kitchen has to do with the sciences. Let it rather with the arts, where it has its place.
Like what can be greedy, spiritual, and think not!
