Intact cells of Allium spp have no odour, but when cells are disrupted, the enzyme alliinase (EC 4.4.1.4) hydrolyses the S-alk(en)yl sulphoxides (ACSOs) to produce pyruvate, ammonia and the many volatile sulphur compounds associated with Ñavour and odour. In onions, there are three main sulphoxides

## Abstract Onion flavour develops when the cells are disrupted, allowing the enzyme alliinase (EC 4.4.1.4) to act upon the aroma precursors __S__‐alk(en)yl‐L‐cysteine sulphoxides (ACSOs). For maximum flavour release, optimal cell disintegration and complete enzymatic conversion of ACSOs are desire
