Italian term or phrase:impasti di base
Ma il burro è anche ingrediente letteralmente insostituibile per moltissime preparazioni di pasticceria: con la sua morbidezza e il suo sapore avvolgente regala caratteristiche uniche a biscotti, impasti di base (pasta frolla, pan di Spagna) , dolci lievitati tipici (panettone, pandolce), creme e glasse. In cucina il burro si utilizza per i risotti, per saltare o rosolare verdure, pesci e alcune carni (brasati, stufati) o ancora per legare salse profumate.
Is there an equivalent term in English? I can't think of anything. Thank you for the help.
although they definitely are not referring to ready made mixes, they do refer to doughs and batters that are used as a foundation for more complex deserts. So, i think both "basic" and "mixes" are needed. Thank you! 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer
