essere elastico Explanation: ...sono ancora elastici... raggrinzire non mi fa impazzire, forse 'appassire' (si usa in cucina)e neanche il 'supplementare', 'e renderanno ancora un poco di liquido'. Un po' meno 'burocratico' :-)	zerlina Italy Local time: 09:41 Specializes in field Native speaker of: Dutch, Italian PRO pts in category: 15

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer) agree  cynthiatesser: compatti mi sembra buono 19 mins   -> Grazie C. :) agree  Francesca Casanova: Piace anche a me 48 mins   -> Grazie F. :) agree  Carla Sordina: forse anche 'consistenti' 1 hr   -> Sì bello anche quello, grazie Carla. Se non fosse poco tecnico, credo si potrebbe anche dire "cicciottelli", ma qui non è il caso!!:) agree  Cristina Munari: A me viene in mente "sodi", perché si usa in cucina. Anche se "sodo" sarebbe "firm". 4 hrs   -> Grazie. Sì, ce ne sono diversi , ma ognuno si allontana un pochino dal testo originale, come al solito è questione di gusti. Qui effettivamente credo abbiano inteso che se leggermente schiacciati tornino un pochino pieni/rigonfi, ma...!!! Grazie agree  Shera Lyn Parpia 6 hrs   -> Grazie Shera :)
