“Umami /uːˈmɑːmi/, popularly referred to as savoriness, is one of the five basic tastes together with sweet, sour, bitter, and salty. Umami is a loanword from the Japanese umami (うま味?) meaning ‘pleasant savory taste’.”
“Humans’ first encounter with umami is often breast milk. It contains roughly the same amount of umami as broths.”
