Umami in the Tribune

The Chicago Tribune has an article today on umami, the "fifth-taste." High protein foods like meats and dairy tend to have high umami content. The article mentions a four-course umami tasting menu that Rick Bayless recently hosted at Topolobampo which included his favorite umami ingredient -- bacon.

An associated article provides suggestions for eating more umami at home.
