I’ve never heard someone refer to a European dish as having umami, it’s just upper class people showing how cultured they are by knowing the Japanese word for savory flavor. To top it off it only gets used when talking about the big three Asian countries. No one is talking about the umami profile of Vietnamese food. It’s the same kind of Anglo person who would read Sun Tzu while drinking lapsang souchong in the mid 20th century. Both are fine things, but together you know this guy is sad about the fall of the British Empire.
I too hate it when people use umami instead of just saying the word savory. People tell me it’s different but then never can explain how
A lot of people would use Savoury when they really just mean kind of salty flavoured (like a chip), instead of the deeper back of the tongue "protein-y" feel of umami.
