Are there common themes in a cuisine's flavour profile? Does the Flavour Pairing Hypothesis hold true? Or is there more to it than just finding common flavour molecules in different ingredients to make a dish which tastes good?
The event is also part of the 2022 BSF Flavourist Training Course which is being held at the University of Reading from 10 – 27 May. The course participants and lecturers will be joining the Online presentation from a lecture theatre in the Chemistry Department where we will have sandwiches and a glass of wine from 6.00 pm. Any BSF member who would like to join us would be very welcome. Contact prof. Don Mottram
