  • Multisensory Flavour Perception: Blending, Mixing, Fusion, and Pairing Within and Between the Senses
    foods Review Multisensory Flavour Perception: Blending, Mixing, Fusion, and Pairing within and between the Senses Charles Spence Crossmodal Research Laboratory, Oxford University, Oxford OX2 6GG, UK; [email protected] Received: 28 February 2020; Accepted: 21 March 2020; Published: 1 April 2020 Abstract: This review summarizes the various outcomes that may occur when two or more elements are paired in the context of flavour perception. In the first part, I review the literature concerning what happens when flavours, ingredients, and/or culinary techniques are deliberately combined in a dish, drink, or food product. Sometimes the result is fusion but, if one is not careful, the result can equally well be confusion instead. In fact, blending, mixing, fusion, and flavour pairing all provide relevant examples of how the elements in a carefully-crafted multi-element tasting experience may be combined. While the aim is sometimes to obscure the relative contributions of the various elements to the mix (as in the case of blending), at other times, consumers/tasters are explicitly encouraged to contemplate/perceive the nature of the relationship between the contributing elements instead (e.g., as in the case of flavour pairing). There has been a noticeable surge in both popular and commercial interest in fusion foods and flavour pairing in recent years, and various of the ‘rules’ that have been put forward to help explain the successful combination of the elements in such food and/or beverage experiences are discussed. In the second part of the review, I examine the pairing of flavour stimuli with music/soundscapes, in the emerging field of ‘sonic seasoning’.

  • The Way of Tea
    the way of tea | VOLUME I the way of tea 2013 © CHADO chadotea.com 79 North Raymond Pasadena, CA 91103 626.431.2832 DESIGN BY Brand Workshop California State University Long Beach art.csulb.edu/workshop/ DESIGNERS Dante Cho Vipul Chopra Eunice Kim Letizia Margo Irene Shin CREATIVE DIRECTOR Sunook Park COPYWRITING Tek Mehreteab EDITOR Noah Resto PHOTOGRAPHY Aaron Finkle ILLUSTRATION Erik Dowling the way of tea honored guests Please allow us to make you comfortable and serve a pot of tea perfectly prepared for you. We also offer delicious sweets and savories and invite you to take a moment to relax: This is Chado. Chado is pronounced “sado” in Japanese. It comes from the Chinese words CHA (“tea”) and TAO (“way”) and translates “way of tea.” It refers not just to the Japanese tea ceremony, but also to an ancient traditional practice that has been evolving for 5,000 years or more. Tea is quiet and calms us as we enjoy it. No matter who you are or where you live, tea is sure to make you feel better and more civilized. No pleasure is simpler, no luxury less expensive, no consciousness-altering agent more benign. Chado is a way to health and happiness that people have loved for thousands of years. Thank you for joining us. Your hosts, Reena, Devan & Tek A BRIEF HISTORY OF CHADO Chado opened on West 3rd Street in 1990 as a small, almost quaint tearoom with few tables, but with 300 canisters of teas from all over the globe lining the walls. In 1993, Reena Shah and her husband, Devan, acquired Chado and began quietly revolutionizing how people in greater Los Angeles think of tea.

  • Exploration of Factors Associated with Tea Culture and Tea Tourism in United States, China, and Taiwan
    ZHOU, MI, M.S. Exploration of Factors Associated with Tea Culture and Tea Tourism in United States, China, and Taiwan. (2011) Directed by Dr. Leandra A. Bedini and Dr. Bonnie Canziani. 91pp. The purpose of this study was to explore how demographic and motivational factors influence tea-drinking behaviors, tea cultural perceptions, and expectations on tea tourism. Few research studies on tea tourism have been published in English literatures. This study reviewed related literatures in both English and Chinese, to integrate the body of knowledge of tea culture and tourism, contribute to understanding and transmission of tea cultures, and promote communications between English and Chinese tea tourism studies. The researcher surveyed a total of 246 university faculty in U.S, China and Taiwan, using convenience sampling methods. The survey contained questions in four categories: tea drinking behaviors, tea cultural perceptions, attitudes, motivations and expectations of tea tourism, and demographics including country of residence, age, gender, education, annual income, and self-reported cultural backgrounds. Data collection procedure was conducted through an online surveying tool, Qualtrics, using web-based surveying methodology. Data were analyzed through Statistical Package for the Social Sciences© version 18.0. This study had five major findings in: (a) tea drinking behavioral profile, (b) the relation between demographic factors and tea drinking behaviors, (c) the relationship between tea drinking behaviors and tea culture, (d) the influence

  • Caffeine in the Diet: Country-Level Consumption and Guidelines
    nutrients Review Caffeine in the Diet: Country-Level Consumption and Guidelines Celine Marie Reyes and Marilyn C. Cornelis * Department of Preventive Medicine, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, Chicago, IL 60611, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-312-503-4548 Received: 26 October 2018; Accepted: 13 November 2018; Published: 15 November 2018 Abstract: Coffee, tea, caffeinated soda, and energy drinks are important sources of caffeine in the diet but each present with other unique nutritional properties. We review how our increased knowledge and concern with regard to caffeine in the diet and its impact on human health has been translated into food-based dietary guidelines (FBDG). Using the Food and Agriculture Organization list of 90 countries with FBDG as a starting point, we found reference to caffeine or caffeine-containing beverages (CCB) in 81 FBDG and CCB consumption data (volume sales) for 56 of these countries. Tea and soda are the leading CCB sold in African and Asian/Pacific countries while coffee and soda are preferred in Europe, North America, Latin America, and the Caribbean. Key themes observed across FBDG include (i) caffeine-intake upper limits to avoid risks, (ii) CCB as replacements for plain water, (iii) CCB as added-sugar sources, and (iv) health benefits of CCB consumption. In summary, FBDG provide an unfavorable view of CCB by noting their potential adverse/unknown effects on special populations and their high sugar content, as well as their diuretic, psycho-stimulating, and nutrient inhibitory properties. Few FBDG balanced these messages with recent data supporting potential benefits of specific beverage types.

  • The Botanical, Chemical and Ethnobotanical Diversity of Southern African Lamiaceae
    molecules Review The Botanical, Chemical and Ethnobotanical Diversity of Southern African Lamiaceae Ryan D. Rattray and Ben-Erik Van Wyk * Department of Botany and Plant Biotechnology, University of Johannesburg, Auckland Park, P.O. Box 524, Johannesburg 2006, South Africa; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +27-11-559-2412 Abstract: The Lamiaceae is undoubtedly an important plant family, having a rich history of use that spans the globe with many species being used in folk medicine and modern industries alike. Their ability to produce aromatic volatile oils has made them valuable sources of materials in the cosmetic, culinary, and pharmaceutical industries. A thorough account of the taxonomic diversity, chemistry and ethnobotany is lacking for southern African Lamiaceae, which feature some of the region’s most notable medicinal and edible plant species. We provide a comprehensive insight into the Lamiaceae flora of southern Africa, comprising 297 species in 42 genera, 105 of which are endemic to the subcontinent. We further explore the medicinal and traditional uses, where all genera with documented uses are covered for the region. A broad review of the chemistry of southern African Lamiaceae is presented, noting that only 101 species (34%) have been investigated chemically (either their volatile oils or phytochemical characterization of secondary metabolites), thus presenting many and varied opportunities for further studies. The main aim of our study was therefore to present an up-to-date account of the botany, chemistry and traditional uses of the family in southern Africa, and Citation: Rattray, R.D.; Van Wyk, to identify obvious knowledge gaps.

Steeped in History: The Art of Tea - 2 - After water, tea is the most frequently consumed beverage on the face of the earth. In ancient China tea was regarded as one of the seven daily necessities of life; for many Japanese it has served as a ritual element in the quest for enlightenment. For Americans it is often associated with the American Revolution; in the Middle East and North Africa it is a sign of hospitality and poured with dramatic flair; and in England afternoon tea holds an immutable place in the popular imagination. Some like it hot, some like it iced, some with milk, some with lemon. Some want tea black, some green. Some tea drinkers prefer whole leaves, while others use tea brick shavings or tea bags. Whatever form it may take and whatever context it is taken in, enjoying a cup of this ubiquitous beverage is an act performed no less than three billion times a day all around our planet.

As I was growing up, I remember my mother chatting with friends in the living room, while eating cookies and sipping tea from bone china cups. My mother so treasured her cup and saucer collection that, for birthdays and other special occasions, my father and I would shop for yet another set for her. I cherish what remains of Mother’s bone china, using it when friends come for special visits. It was not until I went away to college that tea became an essential part of my life. Every afternoon my dormitory housemother would brew a pot of orange and sweet, spice-flavored black tea and open her apartment door, inviting us to stop in for a visit and a cup of tea.
