Beschreibung

Exploring the main aspects of food flavors, this volume discusses the nature of food odorants and tastants and the way they are perceived by the human olfactory system. It presents the basic anatomy and physiology of sensory systems involved in flavor sensation and examines the fundamentals of flavor compounds formation. It also presents technological issues related to flavor compounds and discusses safety and regulatory aspects of flavorings used in foods. Specific flavors are discussed, including those in essential oils and spices, cheeses, red meat, wine, and bread and bakery products. The book also examines food taints and off-flavors and offers analytical approaches to characterize food flavors.
