Cooking, a quintessential creative pursuit, holds profound significance for individuals, communities, and civilizations. Food and cooking transcend mere sensory pleasure to influence nutrition and public health outcomes. Inextricably linked to culinary and cultural heritage, food systems play a pivotal role in sustainability and the survival of life on our planet. Computational Gastronomy is a novel approach for investigating food through a data-driven paradigm. It offers a systematic, rule-based understanding of culinary arts by scrutinizing recipes for taste, nutritional value, health implications, and environmental sustainability. Probing the art of cooking through the lens of computation will open up a new realm of possibilities for culinary creativity. Amidst the ongoing quest for imitating creativity through artificial intelligence, an interesting question would be, 'Can a machine think like a Chef?' Capturing the experience and creativity of a chef in an AI algorithm presents an exciting opportunity for generating a galaxy of hitherto unseen recipes with desirable culinary, flavor, nutrition, health, and carbon footprint profiles.

Lupin ( L.) proteins are potential sources of bioactive peptides (LBPs) that can inhibit dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) and angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE-I) activity. However, the capacity of different enzymes to release LBPs, the pharmacokinetic and bioactivities of the peptides released, and their binding affinities with the active sites of DPP-IV and ECA-I are topics scarcely addressed.

Targeted metabolomics is often criticized for the limited metabolite coverage that it offers. Indeed, most targeted assays developed or used by researchers measure fewer than 200 metabolites. In an effort to both expand the coverage and improve the accuracy of metabolite quantification in targeted metabolomics, we decided to develop a comprehensive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) assay that could quantitatively measure more than 700 metabolites in serum or plasma.

Flavor is expressed through the interaction of molecules via gustatory and olfactory mechanisms. Knowing the pivotal role of flavor molecules in food and fragrances, the existence of a comprehensive repository becomes valuable. Such a repository encompasses the information of flavor molecules characterizing their flavor profile, chemical properties, regulatory status, consumption statistics, taste/aroma threshold values, reported uses in food categories, and synthesis.

The objective of this study was to investigate the change in mineral composition depending on tea variety, tea concentration, and steeping time. Four different tea varieties, black Ceylon (BC), black Turkish (BT), green Ceylon (GC), and green Turkish (GT), were used to produce teas at concentrations of 1, 2, and 3%, respectively. These teas were produced using 7 different steeping times: 2, 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, and 60 min.
