Color, fragrance, taste, shape and device are not the five senses we often talk about.
The five senses in cooking are color, smell, taste, shape and meaning.
Color-the sensory enjoyment given to vision (eyes) in the five senses: representing color, especially the color of finished food in dishes. The section on color mainly focuses on collocation. Color matching can highlight people's first feeling, which is also the first level and very important.
Aroma-sensory enjoyment given to the sense of smell (nose) in the five senses: it represents aroma, especially the smell and smell of food in dishes. Fragrance section mainly talks about the various fragrances after the fusion of various ingredients and seasonings. The emission of fragrance can arouse people's initial appetite, which is the second level and very critical.
Taste-sensory enjoyment given by the sense of taste (tongue) among the five senses: it represents taste, especially the special taste of ingredients and seasonings mixed in dishes. Such as: sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, salty, fresh, hemp and so on. Delicious food can directly and profoundly stimulate people's stronger appetite, which is the third level and the prominent focus of all links in the dish. Good food can stand people's aftertaste and delicious taste, and it is also the foundation for people to keep busy.
Form-sensory enjoyment of vision (eyes) and consciousness (psychology) in the five senses: representative form, specifically refers to whether the shaping form of ingredients can make people feel pleasing to the eye. The beauty of a good dish can not only feast your eyes, but also touch your heart. This is level four.
Meaning-you need to choose the right utensils to assist (that is, match the theme of the dish) in order to fully reflect it. Sensory enjoyment of the five senses: it represents the artistic conception, especially the artistic conception presented by the final product of the dish. This is purely the feeling of the soul. According to legend, if dishes can reach the artistic conception of the upper level, people will feel the sublimation of the soul. This is the last level, and most people can't reach the level of judging it.
We ordinary people only care about the first three levels. We can consider that the people in the fourth level are gourmets who are passionate about food, while the people who take care of the fifth level are only those who have the level of professional gourmet masters.
