Welcome to The Sauce Lab!

I’m Martin and I’ve never stopped being fascinated by how science impacts our daily lives, and there’s no better place to see it than the kitchen. From how we perceive taste and smell to how the proteins react when you bake them, I’m fascinated by the science of what we consume. Cooking for me is not about following recipes, but about discovering the “why” in every step and turning ordinary ingredients into something remarkable. Here, I combine my passion for food, nutrition, and testing to motivate you to cook smarter and healthier at home.
