单词 | consomme |
释义 | consomme (once / 105530 pages) n Consomme is a light, clear broth. Usually, consomme is made with concentrated beef or chicken stock and served hot. Traditional consomme is made by clarifying a rich stock, a process that involves using egg whites to concentrate any solids in the soup, so they can be strained or removed. Very good consomme should be completely clear, with no solids or particles. This kind of soup has been eaten since the Middle Ages, and the word comsomme is the past participle of the French consommer, "to consume."
