The term avant-garde <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/peruvian-cuisine-in-madrid\/\"><strong>cuisine<\/strong><\/a> was awarded by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/crepes-madrid\/\"><strong>French<\/strong><\/a> physicist-chemist <strong>Herve This<\/strong>, and together with the English physicist <strong>Nicholas Kurti<\/strong>, he initiated a new phase in universal gastronomy. Research began on the physical-chemical structure of foods, such as proteins, carbohydrates, fats or starches. In this research, they worked on the physico-chemical reactions that emerge from cooking, how to alter proteins to acids, at what temperature the egg coagulates, and many other things. The nouvelle cuisine of <strong>Paul Bocuse<\/strong> brought these new techniques to the restaurant, elaborating on the way of plating, the marginalization of the roux as a base for sauces, the use of fresh <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>seasonal products<\/strong><\/a>, and the reduction of portions, in addition to modern techniques of cooking and cutting, in order to obtain a harmony of flavors. These techniques were the benchmark for chefs such as <strong>Ferran Adri\u00e0<\/strong>, founder of molecular cuisine, to start the new culinary era in which dozens of Spanish cooks of great creative value, have been put on the charts and who have triumphed throughout the world .<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related article:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/the-best-brunch-spots-in-madrid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Best Brunch Spots in Madrid<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8430\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8430\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8430\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o-810x540.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o-1140x760.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.shmadrid.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/1954753100_d6396056ae_o.jpg 1650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8430\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Photo via Visualhunt<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To enjoy this wonderful, innovative, surprising and high quality cuisine, you can pay a visit to restaurant <a href=\"https:\/\/www.restauranteviridiana.net\/empresa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>Viridiana<\/strong><\/a>, a magnificent example of avant-garde cuisine.
