S2E13 (Neuro)spora

[Level: medium]

In this episode we speak with Juan Agustín Muños Vildósola, or for friends and family: Tato, about his work at Spora. At Spora, inventions from the Alchemist restaurant are translated to scalable solution. Think cocoa-free chocolate or creating salmon flavours without salmon. We also dive deeper into a very special fungus called Neurospora. If you do not come from Indonesia, this fungus is probably pretty novel for you. It grows on practically anything and produces fruity flavours. Could this be the next big hit after koji? Listen to Tato and decide if you want to work with it ;-)
