Our brands mail_outline Experience our (tomato-based) taste paste that gives every dish a flavour bomb! Meet our natural seasoning condiment, that's just that little drip of extra taste! Learn more! Welcome to Taste#5, a food enthusiast company, whose goal is to create delicious umami rich cooking solutions based on natural, recognisable ingredients. Taste#5 is a brand of Scelta Inside, a supplier of umami ingredients that provides clean label taste enhancement solutions.

As you may know, our mouth can identify 5 basic tastes. You can probably recognise and describe at least 4 of them: salt, sweet, sour and bitter. More difficult to taste as separate taste is the fifth taste: Umami. This is usually described as a savoury or meaty taste.

 Umami うま味 Discover this savoury deliciousness is in a tube! Learn more! The way
of cooking Natural
Umami Umami needs other flavour components to do its work. The most well-known umami component is glutamate (amino acid). You find glutamate in many different foods such as: Parmesan cheese, soy sauce, tomatoes and mushrooms. The real boost in umami comes when glutamate combines with nucleotides (found in meat, fish and mushrooms). These together create an amazing umami synergy, which is 8 times higher than glutamate alone.

That is why a hamburger with tomato and cheese tastes always so delicious!

Our umami-rich products are built to give an intense flavour. Best described as a full rounded and longer-lasting. Intensifying the salt, sweetness and spiciness of many foods!

At Taste#5 we develop products which help you to give your dishes just that little bit extra, for example our Umami Flavour Booster paste and our Bomba & Naturoma range. Bomba! Create the ultimate taste in your dish with just a squeeze of our taste pastes. Inspired and based on the world cuisines, we help you to add this typical regional flavour to your dish in an easy way.

Bomba! is a natural, ready-to-eat sauce that can be used with just a squeeze in 5 different ways: spreading, cooking, dipping, saucing, souping.

It all began in 2013 when Laura Santini started the search for the most sauciest tomato paste. With her roots in Italy, she selected the best tomato pastes. Combined with the basics of cooking in many Italian dishes, she added sofrito and red wine. Bomba! was born! The perfect way to easily add authentic Italian flavours to your pasta sauce, stews or spreads. Discover all new flavours now! The magic
is all around Inspired by the success of Bomba XXX, the original tomato paste, we are proud to introduce two new product lines: The World Flavours & The Mediterranean Flavours Natu Roma Naturoma® is a taste enhancer based on natural & recognisable ingredients. The combination of our mushroom extract, which is high in umami, with tomato, carrot and onion gives Naturoma this versatile culinary base.

Besides that you can also use this culinary sauce as a cooking ingredient in meat (replacers), sauces, dipping sauces, stews and many more.

 If I were able to be so frank I would print the words Cognitive Cook, because my work is all about exploring the inextricable link between flavours and feelings. For me it is about learning to taste what you feel and feel what you taste, it is a desire to understand and recognize the ingredients that affect the flavour of your life both in and out of the kitchen. They say that “to know” what we taste, is an illustration of our ability to process flavours, Cognitive Cookery is about consciously or unconsciously applying that knowledge to ultimately tweak or change the recipes of our lives. Life should taste mostly delicious and sweet. The sour, the salty and the bitter, are best reserved for the kitchen.
