Molecular Gastronomy At Its Finest

I love Heston Blumenthal -- absolutely adore him. Last spring, I discovered his show called "Heston's Feasts," where he uses old recipes from a particular era and recreates, obviously adding some kind of modern twist. In one particular episode, he tackles the victorian period, and makes a delightful feast accordingly. His on camera shtick is two fold: (1) he employs the most unconventional, and otherwise disgusting, ingredients (2) he cannot himself help but to take on the seemingly impossible gastronomic challenges. This is a clip of him actually creating the famous "drink me" potion from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.
