Flavour: a Users Guide to Our Most Neglected Sense

Explore the extraordinary science of flavour and why what we think we know about taste is almost certainly wrong. Whether you like to cook creatively, delve into cutting-edge science, or explore the latest ideas about health, diet and nutrition, Flavour will open your mind - and your palate - to a vast, exciting sensory world. Visit the birthplace of flavour in the brain to discover why cake tastes sweetest on a white plate, how wine experts' eyes can fool their noses, and how even language affects the flavour we find in our food. Move from the laboratory into the kitchen and peer over the shoulders of the food technologists seeking to engineer the perfect snacks or soft drinks and the head chefs looking for new ways to combine flavours into surprising yet delicious dishes, and even the mathematicians searching for the perfect pizza topping and the chemists seeking the ideal pairing of food and wine. Learn why people like the foods they do, what makes some foods more delicious than others, and how flavour affects our appetite and health.
