Ingredient application scan
Show the functionality of ingredients in the final food product which can be touched, smelled and tasted.
"Tell me and I will forget
Show me and I might remember
Let me taste and I will be convinced" (free after Confucius)

Deliverables:
- You will see and taste your ingredient in up to six lab- or kitchen-scale recipes
- You go home with a list of food applications where you know your ingredient does / does not work
- You have a clear idea of how to demonstrate the functionality of your ingredient towards your customers

Prepare your visit by filling in the form (button [Start now]). Your host will contact you to agree with you on the program of the day and in which food applications you will test your ingredient
