Átpréselve

Átpréselve is a Hungarian verb meaning "pressed through" or "extruded." It describes a process where a substance is forced through a die or opening, typically to give it a specific shape. This can apply to various contexts, from food preparation to industrial manufacturing.

In cooking, átpréselve is commonly used when referring to pureeing or mashing ingredients. For example, one might átpréselve cooked vegetables to create a smooth soup or baby food. This method ensures a uniform texture, breaking down fibrous materials effectively. It is similar to the English terms "pureed" or "strained" depending on the specific application and the tool used.

In manufacturing, the term átpréselve relates to extrusion processes. This involves forcing materials like plastic, metal, or even dough through a shaped die to create long, continuous profiles. Examples include extruding pasta shapes, plastic pipes, or aluminum window frames. The shape of the die directly determines the cross-sectional shape of the extruded product. The core idea is applying significant pressure to deform and shape the material.
