  1. blanched

    Blanched typically refers to a cooking process in which food, often vegetables or nuts, is briefly immersed in boiling water and then moved into cold water to halt the cooking process. This helps to preserve the color, texture, and nutritional value of the food. However, in a non-cooking context, "blanched" can also refer to a person becoming pale or white due to fear, shock, or similar emotional states.
