Today we listened to this story about the five tastes from National Public Radio. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=15819485
From this story we added three new vocabulary words:
dashi
glutamate
flavor
Then in order to best understand what these tastes are students had a plate of tastes.
Important concepts we covered today include
Flavor is not taste; taste is not flavor. There are five tastes: sweet, sour, salt, bitter, and ummami. Flavor is a complex experience of eating derived from a variety of sense.
HOMEWORK:
Independent Book Projects are due on Thursday, 1 November
There will be a vocabulary test on Thursday, 8 November. The test will cover the following words:
cereal
monocot
dicot
Mise en place
sesame oil
savory
ummami
sour
sweet bitter
salt
anthropology
hearth
sustenance
fruit
rice and beans
legumes
dashi
glutamte
