Phyllo dough + Phyllo dough
Phyllo, filo, or fillo dough is paper-thin sheets of unleavened flour dough used for making pastries in Middle Eastern and Balkan cuisine. Phyllo dough is made with flour, water, and a small amount of oil and rak? or white vinegar, though some dessert recipes also call for egg yolks. Phyllo can be used in many ways: layered, folded, rolled, or ruffled, with various fillings. [Wikipedia]
Shared flavor compounds
These compounds appear in both Phyllo dough and Phyllo dough, giving them a molecular basis for flavor affinity, the pairing principle articulated by Francois Benzi and implemented in flavor-pairing research.
Why it works
The flavor-pairing hypothesis proposes that ingredients sharing significant aromatic compounds harmonize on the palate. Phyllo dough and Phyllo dough overlap on 17 key compound(s), which is why classic culinary traditions, and our deterministic matching algorithm, place them together.
