Thomas Keller's 'Under Pressure,' Harper's Index Style

20081103-underpressure.jpgThe blog Eat Me Daily did some nice number play with Thomas Keller's new book, Under Pressure:

Number of photographs of Thomas Keller that appear in Under Pressure, his new cookbook dedicated to the art of sous vide: 10
Number in which he is frowning: 7
Number in which he is smiling: 2
Number in which he is neither frowning nor smiling, but appears to be dancing the macarena: 1 (page 98)
Year in which Keller says he began vacuum-packing food: 1986

Under Pressure is Keller's tome that delves into the world of sous vide cookery.

And now, to spread the pain, I've got something after the jump for you.

Now you've got it in your head, too!

What?! Macarena? Photo, please.

What on earth is the cover photo of? Anyone know?

Thanks! And sadly, ew. I never could get behind rhubarb as anything other than gag-inducing.

Arrrrrrrgh, thanks Adam! Now I have it in my head! I know, I know, you warned...and I clicked anyway, so I have only my daft self to blame!

Hey I love that song!

But on the embarrasing side, my oldest sister actually used to dance the Macarena professionally! Miami Dolphins and a few other pro sports games, and even a Christmas version on The Jerry Springer show!

I so want a sous vide machine of my own.
