almond purée Explanation: another suggestion -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day7 mins (2012-03-22 17:34:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry Dave, it was just an educated guess really. I haven't found any references. I saw one example of 'morbido di fave' with a picture which seemed like puréed broad beans. I think paste and purée are essentially the same - I just thought purée sounded better for a menu -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day9 mins (2012-03-22 17:36:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Sorry Dave, it was just an educated guess really.

"il morbido" is an adjective used as a noun in Italian which here translates as paste a noun. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day2 hrs (2012-03-22 19:40:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- If you are looking for an adjective then "soft almond" but that takes you back to paste, cream or purée. Almonds are hard. https://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&=&q="soft... I find it best to focus on the underlying reality rather than the grammar, which one are you looking for: https://www.google.it/search?tbm=isch&hl=it&source=hp&biw=10... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day3 hrs (2012-03-22 21:24:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- My pleasure Dave, the financial translation I'm doing is so boring, your almond delight provides welcom light relief :) |
