How to cook in the space? What can we cook in microgravity? ¶
A few days ago on the Facebook we had an interesting duscussion about the space foods. If you have good ideas about the space cooking techniques, best ingredients, solutions to the problems, please write them here.
The main problems:
~ The flavour of the foods is not the same in the space than on the Earth because of the microgravity.
~ We have to avoid the strong odors.
~ The steam and heat is dangerous in a closed space station
~ Easier to produce artificial and labfood in the space than fresh foods.
~ The meat production requires too much energy, oxygen, water and minerals, so better to think about just alternatives or a few labmeat to decorate the food (like sushi).
~ In microgravity we cannot use plate, bowl, spoon, fork and knife well.:)
