Edouard de Pomaine was a French scientist and food writer in the early 20th century.

His best known works to have been translated into English are Cooking in Ten Minutes and Cooking with Pomaine. His writing was remarkable in its time for its directness (he frequently uses a strange second-person voice, telling you -- the reader -- what you are seeing and smelling as you follow a recipe) and for his general disdain for "traditional" elaborate French cuisine. His recipes often take pains to demystify cooking by explaining the chemical processes at work.
