Flavour Building
Treating flavour pairing as absolute rules rather than guidelines. Ignoring texture — flavour pairing means nothing if textures clash. Forgetting that concentration matters — a pairing that works at low intensity may be terrible at high intensity. Assuming unfamiliar pairings are wrong — some of the best combinations violate conventional wisdom. Over-relying on the theory without tasting.
