Beetroot sprouts instantly conjure the embrace of petrichor and the bracing kiss of chlorophyll, woven with delicate hints of iron, spinach, and sulfur, contributing remarkable depth. The true alchemy of the kitchen unfolds when we pair beetroot sprouts with ingredients that let these nuances sing.
To map these harmonies, we analysed thousands of ingredients, breaking each one down across 150 flavour dimensions, identifying which notes complement and contrast. Our findings reveal, for instance, how salt's saline tones can ground beetroot sprouts, or how celery's selinon notes create an unexpectedly harmonious bridge with the fresh earthiness.

How Flavonomics Works
We've pioneered a unique, data-driven approach to decode the intricate art of flavour pairing. Our goal is to move beyond intuition and uncover the science of why certain ingredients harmonise beautifully. This rigorous methodology allows us to provide you with insightful and reliable pairing recommendations.
Our analysis begins with over 50,000 carefully selected recipes from acclaimed chefs like Galton Blackiston, Marcello Tully, and Pierre Lambinon. This premium dataset ensures our model distils genuine culinary excellence and creativity.
Each ingredient from these recipes is deconstructed across 150 distinct flavour dimensions, creating a unique numerical "flavour fingerprint." This quantification allows us to apply advanced analytical methods to identify complex patterns between flavour notes.
We identify popular ingredient combinations that frequently appear in our recipe database. Regression analysis is then performed on these pairings to statistically validate and pinpoint truly harmonious flavours.
These insights drive our predictive model, which allows us to take any ingredient (e.g., Beetroot sprouts), analyse its detailed flavour profile, and accurately reveal its complementary flavours and perfect ingredient partners.
