Investigation of the species specific flavor of meat

The first clue to this mystery was probably uncovered by Crocker in 1947. He postulated that the factors responsible for meat flavor are found to a greater extent in the juice than in the fibre. Crocker explained that the majority of the flavor is developed as a result of the thermal degradation of proteins. During the cooking process, amines, acids, sulfur compounds, and phenols are released.

Spray Drying of Food Flavors - 1.Theory of Flavor Retention

Research to date suggests that optimum flavor retention may be obtained by using as high infeed solids as possible, raising infeed temperature if this permits higher infeed solids levels, choosing a carrier which favors flavor retention and operating the dryer at optimum inlet and exit air temperatures. These suggestions are based on research which has generally dealt with a study of a limited number of volatiles and flavor carriers seldom or never used in the flavor industry.
