Perfect Pairings & Recipes for
Morgon

Analysing hundreds of thousands of recipes uncovers Morgon's optimal flavour pairings.

Morgon is defined by the taste of cherry and raspberry, yet its initial bitterness is only the opening note. Beneath lies a complex tapestry of delicate iron, whispers of blackberry, and the soft floral aroma of blossom that give it remarkable depth. The key to finding the perfect pairing for Morgon is understanding how these notes harmonise.

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 suckling pig's lacteal tones can enrich Morgon, or how clove's eugenolic notes create an unexpectedly harmonious bridge with the juicy sweetness.

An ingredient's flavour stems from its core characteristics, such as floral, earthy, or nectarous, combined with layers of subtle flavour notes (outer bars). For a balanced dish, pair ingredients with a variety of core flavours, and choose complementary aroma notes for harmony.

The Flavour Code

To understand exactly which flavours harmonise, we compiled a database of over 50,000 ingredient pairings commonly used in cooking. We then analysed these pairings, identifying the specific flavour notes that frequently appear together.

The Flavours That Harmonise With Cherry Notes

Our analysis reveals a strong connection between cherry and clove flavours. Since Morgon has a distinct cherry-like flavour, try pairing it with the clove-like flavours of clove.

The recipe below provides inspiration for pairing Morgon with clove.

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., Morgon), analyse its detailed flavour profile, and accurately reveal its complementary flavours and perfect ingredient partners.
