EN: scald, blanch
It's what you do to your utensils when you're extra OC about germs, or what your mom does to vegetables before stir-frying so they stay crisp. Think of it as a quick, hot bath for food or things. Not a full boil, just a quick dip. Parang "seeing" lang sa chat, mabilisang pasilip lang.
Often used in cooking contexts, especially for vegetables (blanching) or sterilizing baby bottles. The verb form is often 'banlian' (to scald something).
