Every compound-food link in CompKitchen comes from a peer-reviewed source. Search 38,144 flavor-relevant papers — part of a 44,648-paper indexed corpus — on aroma compounds, odor thresholds, GC-MS analyses, and sensory studies that power the pairing engine.
Without supervision or human-coded labels, a UMAP projection of 7,464 volatile compounds across 450 ingredients reproduces conventional food categories — and surfaces cross-category molecular bridges that traditional culinary intuition misses.
