Koku in Food Science and Physiology
This is the first book to explore the science underlying the concept of “koku”, which is central to an understanding of the palatability of food within Japanese cuisine and is attracting increasing interest among food scientists and professionals worldwide. Koku may be defined as the sensation that results from the complexity of the food (i.e., its richness or body), its lingering aftertaste or persistence, and its heartiness in terms of taste, aroma, and texture. A variety of substances have been found to impact significantly on koku, including umami substances, phytosterols, certain aromatic compounds, and kokumi substances. In Koku – Food Science and Physiology, readers will find full explanation of the conceptual aspects and the latest research results on a wide range of topics, including the relevant flavor chemistry and sensory analysis. Written by leading scientists in the field, the book will be a valuable resource for students and researchers in the fields of food chemistry, nutritional science, taste physiology, and neuroscience, as well as for professionals in the food industry.
The Science of Thai Cuisine
Lists of the most popular or delicious dishes in the world always include Thai food. Sriracha sauce has gone from a dipping sauce made in a small town in Thailand to become a recognizable flavor in cuisine worldwide. With a reputation of being hot and spicy, it is not uncommon to see those who try Thai food for the first time shedding tears and sporting a red nose. Yet, the Thai national cuisine has gained a high degree of global recognition and admiration despite Thailand being a relatively small country. Is this down to sheer luck, its being an extensive work of art, or, possibly, because of scientific literacy? The Science of Thai Cuisine: Chemical Properties and Sensory Attributes approa...
Food Proteins and Peptides
A multidisciplinary resource, Food Proteins and Peptides: Chemistry, Functionality, Interactions, and Commercialization enables researchers in biochemistry, biotechnology, food science and technology, nutrition, and medicine to understand the physicochemical and biochemical factors that govern the functionality of these food components. Following chapters on the structure and chemistry of amino acids, peptides, and proteins, the book describes modes of characterization and the functional relationships of food proteins. It examines protein solubility and insolubility and explores proteins and peptides as emulsifying and foaming agents. Specialized topics include: Factors affecting heat-induce...
Comprehensive Natural Products II
This work presents a definitive interpretation of the current status of and future trends in natural products—a dynamic field at the intersection of chemistry and biology concerned with isolation, identification, structure elucidation, and chemical characteristics of naturally occurring compounds such as pheromones, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and enzymes. With more than 1,800 color figures, Comprehensive Natural Products II features 100% new material and complements rather than replaces the original work (©1999). Reviews the accumulated efforts of chemical and biological research to understand living organisms and their distinctive effects on health and medicine Stimulates new ideas am...
Flavour
Why should you serve red wine with classical music and white wine with pop music? What is it about a heavier bowl that makes your pudding taste better? And how can you make your food taste saltier without adding more salt? If any of these questions has sparked your appetite you need to read Flavour. New Scientist correspondent Bob Holmes has tasted a lot of things in the name of flavour. He’s travelled all over the world, delved into cutting-edge scientific research, enlisted chefs, psychologists, molecular gastronomists, flavourists and farmers, attended the weirdest conventions, and even received very rare access to one of the world’s few highly secretive flavour houses. For anyone who wants to be a better cook, get the best restaurant experience no matter where you go, or if you just want to make better decisions in the supermarket or about your diet. Flavour will help you discover a deeper appreciation of what’s on your plate and in your glass. A fascinating and surprising exploration into a world of high-definition flavour.

Вкус: Наука о самом малоизученном человеческом чувстве
Мы наслаждаемся изысканной едой, но ничего не знаем о том, как взаимодействуют наши вкусовые рецепторы и обоняние, осязание, зрение и даже наши ожидания. А ведь именно эти сложные взаимосвязи и создают то, что мы называем "вкус". Перед вами своего рода путеводитель по миру вкуса, от нейробиологии до науки производства продуктов питания. Книга поможет вам гораздо лучше понимать, что такое вкус и как использовать эти знания для обогащения своего вкусового опыта. Вы узнаете, как мы воспринимаем вкус, как он создается и как его усилить. Предупреждаем: после прочтения книги все вкусное может стать еще вкуснее.
