Project Description:
The Barabasi lab explores the diverse flavors of cultural cuisines and asks if there are general patterns, transcending cultural traditions, that determine ingredient combinations or patterns. They develop a flavor network characterizing the specific flavor compounds found in culinary ingredients. They find that Western cuisines tend to use ingredient pairs that are very close in flavor compounds, while East Asian cuisines avoid compound-sharing ingredients.
