Description
Authentic Japanese dashi ingredients (seaweed and dried fishes) were investigated for their taste-active composition using a set of analytical methodologies. Applying a sensometabolomic approach, a total of 41 alleged taste-active metabolites and minerals were quantitatively determined in the dashi ingredients and then ranked on their sensory impact after assessing the individual dose-over-threshold (DoT) factors. Taste re-engineering experiments showed that in most cases the key players for the overall taste of the individual target were identified using this classical targeted metabolomic approach.
