Our cookbook
We hope that with this cookbook, we can identify international consumer preferences, play a key role in helping to improve future grain storage, enhance human health with the recipes and drinks, improve food end-product quality, identify novel bioactive compounds, train the next generation of food scientists, and build long term collaborative food innovation systems.
