Ever wondered why some dishes taste extra satisfying? That’s the magic of Umami!
Umami is the fifth taste, besides sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. It makes food rich, deep, and oh-so-yummy. But here’s the real trick. When you mix different umami-rich ingredients, the flavour doesn’t just add up. It is MULTIPLIES!

Easy umami formula
- Tomato (Glutamate) + Mushrooms (Guanylate) = Supercharged Deliciousness!
- Kelp (Glutamate) + Nori (Inosinate) + Shiitake (Guanylate) = UMAMI EXPLOSION!
