What is umami?？
Spanish mackerel contains a large amount of ”inosinic acid”, which has an 【umami taste】.
In fact, umami was discovered by the Japanese about 100 years ago. Until umami was discovered, taste was thought to consist of four elements: sweet, sour, salty, and bitter.
Umami is a flavor that does not fit into any of these four categories. Umami means deliciousness.
It is known that the components of umami are amino acids such as guanylic acid, inosinic acid, and glutamic acid.
In Japan, dashi soups fromkelp (kombu), bonito flakes, and shiitake mushrooms have been used since ancient times. Kelp (kombu) contains glutamic acid, bonito flakes contain inosinic acid, and shiitake mushrooms contain guanylic acid.
Glutamic acid is also found in large amounts in tomatoes and cheese.
Combining glutamic acid and inosinic acid has a synergistic effect that doubles the flavor.
In this dish, the inosinic acid in the Spanish mackerel and the glutamic acid in the tomatoes and cheese combine to give the dish a deep flavor.
