Recent Development
  • A recent study by the Australian Meat Processor Corporation focuses on KOKUMI, the sixth taste experience after sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami. Kokumi is a sensation that enhances and prolongs the flavors of the other five tastes. It is best defined as a perceived roundness and richness. One of the secondary cuts that's becoming popular in Australia's gourmet scene is slow-cooked beef brisket. Because kokumi is not produced by a single molecule but rather is activated by glutamyl peptides found naturally in fermented and aged foods, scientists have had difficulty identifying it. AMPC and AgResearch NZ are now investigating the process of obtaining taste peptides from cow offal products, like livers and lungs.
