The Maillard reaction is a chemical reaction between amino acids and reducing sugars that occurs when food is cooked at high temperatures. It leads to the browning of food and the development of complex flavors and aromas, contributing to the taste and color of many cooked foods, such as bread crust, roasted coffee, and grilled meat.
