gépepesítés

Gépepesítés is a Hungarian term that literally translates to "peppering" or "adding pepper." In its most common usage, it refers to the act of adding pepper to food as a seasoning. This can range from a light sprinkle to a generous addition, depending on personal preference and the specific dish. It is a fundamental culinary practice in Hungarian cuisine and many other food cultures worldwide.

Beyond its literal meaning, gépepesítés can also be used metaphorically. In certain contexts, it might describe the act of adding something extra or a finishing touch to an item or situation. This metaphorical use implies enhancing or livening up something that is perceived as lacking. However, this figurative application is far less common than its culinary definition. The primary understanding of gépepesítés remains firmly rooted in the act of seasoning food with pepper.
