Abstract

The flavour of beef has been investigated more extensively than any other meat flavour, probably because of its greater consumer popularity, and hence its commercial significance in the creation of successful simulated meat flavourings. Literature reports over the past 30 years show that the flavour of beef is highly complex. In its simplest format, it consists of taste-active compounds, flavour enhancers and aroma components.
