A recent example: the new Healsio oven that reduces fat and salt content by cooking with superheated steam. The oven is a smash in Japan, even though it's small and retails for more than...
Other experiments were designed to test the benefits of weightlessness on industrial processes. An isothermal heating oven melted samples of metals such as nickel and molybdenum to a temperature of 1,600°C to test a technique for creating stronger alloys, while a mirror-heater was employed to grow ultrapure crystals, which could someday benefit the microchip industry...

His food-loving family had two kitchens (kosher households keep meat and dairy separate), and he quickly learned which oven was best for baking his brownies. Lieberman sharpened his kitchen skills during a year abroad before college, apprenticing with a cook in Italy and studying local specialties in Germany, Spain and France. At Yale, he was known for throwing legendary dinner parties, singlehandedly roasting, frying and baking while mixing drinks for dozens of friends and even matchmaking between courses. On a lark...
