- Short biography
- A journalist for over 20 years, Jennifer writes about topics that interest her – science, food, travel, art, and lifestyle – for The New York Times, Travel & Leisure, Omni, Discover, Harvard Magazine among others, and has garnered a reputation for sniffing out trends. She wrote the first objective book on the commercial nuclear power controversy (Nuclear Power: Both Sides), and co-authored a popular book about scientists’ quest for the unified field theory (Beyond Einstein) when the superstring theory was proposed in 1987. She wrote the first national story about the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA) for The New York Times in 1987, and was so taken by the idea of establishing a contemporary art museum in an abandoned mill complex in a small New England city that she asked the fledgling institution’s founding director Joseph Thompson for a job. Thompson hired her to become MASS MoCA’s founding development director, and several years later married her. She and her husband Joe live in western Massachusetts with their two children.

Thompson, Jennifer Trainer. Hot Sauce! Techniques for Making Signature Hot Sauces.Storey. 2012. c.192p. photogs. index. ISBN 9781603428163. pap. $14.95. COOKING
Thompson (The Fresh Egg Cookbook) is the chef/creator of a line of hot sauces and has authored a number of cooking books on hot sauces, spices, and more. This well-photographed collection includes an introduction on the history of hot sauce and how to show more work with chilies, instructions for making 32 sauces using a wide variety of peppers, and 60 recipes that use hot sauce, from drinks (e.g., Fire in the Hole Shooter) to dips to “Small Foods” (e.g., Tuna Ceviche) to barbecue. Thompson also includes useful lists of store-bought options to use in your cooking if you don’t want to create a whole batch from scratch.
VerdictBecause the subject is so specific, this collection is recommended for extensive culinary collections and libraries lacking other books on cooking with heat. A good gift book for the do-it-yourselfer hot sauce connoisseur.—Jane Hebert, Mount Juliet, TN show less
