Food pairing

Food pairing (or flavor pairing or food combination) is a method of identifying which foods go well together from a flavor standpoint, often based on individual tastes, popularity, availability of ingredients, and traditional cultural practices.

For the process of pairing food dishes with wine, see Wine and food pairing.

From a food science perspective, foods may be said to combine well with one another when they share key chemical compounds or flavor components. One such process was trademarked as "Foodpairing" by the company of the same name.
