Soufflés and Time Travel

Dave gives a lesson involving balloons and the science of a soufflé rising, then he makes two soufflés. He talks about how the soufflé is a dish of time travel, how science helped him improve as a chef, and how the term "molecular gastronomy" was a mistake. At the end, he has some guests show up to eat his soufflés ... but will they make it before the soufflés collapse? Watch to find out!
