Our tongue is sensitive to 5 basic tastes. What are they? Some of us might say 甜酸苦辣鹹 but we are not talking about life. In Food Science, spiciness is a feeling of pain but not taste.

I made a pizza with three main toppings which carry the fifth taste "Umami 鮮味". As S2 is learning how to balance different flavours, I hope they can remember the meaning and importance of such a versatile taste by making their version of umami pizza this week.
