Of course I understant this difficulty. That is why proper terminology
usage, whatever the language used, is necessary. Cooking terminology is not
complicated but it is extensive. All cooking processes and techniques have
specific English and/or French terminology. All the processes of cooking
described in any other language can also be described in English. While
foods (dishes) are ethnic dependent, cooking terms are not.

What makes you so sure that I am "firmly planted in Euro-centri(c)ways" that
you feel you can lecture me about it? I do note your point. I just feel that
it is wrong. No harm with that. People can disagree without being rude.

I might also point out that this is an English language newsgroup. Other
languages are certainly not banned, but have a lesser impact as not all (or
even most) readers do not speak Spanish, which is the most common
non-English language posted here. When reading a message written in English
by a person who has a different first language, or when attempting to
translate a message from another language to English, great care must be
used. Using proper English terms for cooking makes it easier.
