TARO’S AROMATIC NOTES AT PEROMA

The R&D team at PEROMA conducts in-depth research and analysis on the aromatic notes of taro when cooked together with savory, starchy, fatty, and naturally sweet flavors. Specifically, during the research process:

Roasted and nutty notes

Five Pyrazine compounds in the formula create the nutty flavor, including 2,3,5-Trimethylpyrazine, 2,3-Dimethylpyrazine, 2-Methyl-3-Methylthiopyrazine, 2-Methoxy-3-Methylpyrazine, and 2-Acetylpyrazine. These Pyrazine compounds are primarily used in the taro flavor to create the roasted and nutty notes.

Cooked and starchy notes

To create the natural flavor of cooked taro and starch, 3-(Methylthio) Propanol plays a key role, along with the addition of Methyl Sulfide, which has a strong, sweet aroma reminiscent of vegetables, corn, and roots. 2,3-Butadione contributes a characteristic buttery, creamy, and sweet milk scent. Certain volatile fatty compounds containing nitrogen or sulfur atoms, such as Dialkyl Sulfide, Alkyl Thiol, and Disulfide, are important aroma constituents widely present in food and spices. Butyl Butyryl Lactate imparts a similar aroma to milk, light cheese, butter, and cream. They are primarily used in the formula to create butter, milk, and cheese nuances.

Fatty notes

Lactones compounds are used in the formula to bring the fatty flavor, such as coconut milk, enhancing the overall aroma. δ-Lactones, Decalactone, δ-Decalactone, δ-Undecalactone, γ-Nonalactone, each compound carries different characteristic fatty notes (δ-Decalactone has an oily, coconut wax-like aroma; δ-Undecalactone has a rich, creamy, buttery scent…), but the harmonious combination in appropriate proportions creates the distinct flavor profile of the taro flavor.

Natural sweet notes

Finally, the components responsible for the natural sweet flavor are Maltol and Ethyl maltol. Maltol is characterized by its sweet, caramel, and cotton candy-like taste, commonly found in fruity and berry aromas. It is used in fragrance formulations to provide a caramel-like flavor and as a flavor enhancer. Ethyl Maltol has a very sweet aroma, resembling fruits, with high stability and a sweet fruity taste. It is four to six times stronger than Maltol. It is used in fragrance compositions and as a flavor enhancer in food products.
