parboil
English
Etymology
From Old French parbouillir (“to boil thoroughly”), from Medieval Latin perbulli?, from Latin per (“thoroughly”) + bulli? (“I boil”). Sense “to boil partially” (c.1440), rather than original “to boil thoroughly” is by corruption: associating the prefix with part (from Latin pars (“part”)) rather than per.
Verb
parboil (third-person singular simple present parboils, present participle parboiling, simple past and past participle parboiled)
- To boil food briefly so that it is partly cooked.
