What is umami? Umami, meaning “deliciousness” in Japanese, is the fifth basic taste, alongside sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. It’s a savory, meaty flavor that enhances other tastes and creates a mouthwatering sensation. Umami is primarily caused by the presence of glutamate, an amino acid found in many protein-rich foods. Research shows that incorporating umami can reduce salt intake by up to 40% without compromising taste, promote better digestion, and make each bite more satisfying. In honour
