How does the nose know what it smells? How do we taste foods? What
gives foods their characteristic flavours? How do the methods of
food preparation and processing change the flavours of foods? Food
Flavours answers these questions and much more, in a clear and
understandable manner, describing the composition of flavour
compounds and the contributions they make to our sensory
experiences. The book begins with the chemical reactions by which
chemical compounds develop in plants, and continues through the
processing and preparation of foods. It then turns to our chemical
sensory systems to describe the recognition and neural processing
of these compounds in the nervous system, and the reactions that we
have to flavours. The way that chemical qualities give foods their
characteristic flavours, and the ways various methods of food
preparation and preservation affect those compounds and the
resulting flavours are dealt with in detail, both from a chemical
and a biological aspect. Throughout, Food Flavours provides special
in-depth coverage of taste/odour physiology, and it contains a
unique chapter providing a learning and problem-solving technique
that will prove invaluable to students in all areas of food
science, as well as in biological, organic and analytical
chemistry, and will be a good addition to any food technologist's
bookshelf.
