Researchers are using orange mold that grows on food waste to change the flavor of foods, and serving it in Michelin-starred restaurants.
An orange mold called Neurospora intermedia is taking the culinary world by storm. That’s because the mold grows on food waste without producing toxins, and it has actually become a delicacy served in Michelin-starred restaurants. Restaurants are finding new ways to use food waste. The trick? A strange type of mold that radically alters the taste of the food. So much so that it allows the food to be eaten in new forms.
While relying on a mold to turn old food into edible products again might seem strange, repurposing older foods into new items is a practice many have used for centuries. In fact, there are already several things on the market that can often be attributed to old and discarded food, like croutons and bread crumbs, which can sometimes be made from stale bread.
