Consomme
Culinary Term
Consomme is used mainly in culinary contexts, especially in menus and recipes.
The menu features a mushroom consomme as the first course.
Fine Dining
Consomme is often associated with fine dining and elegant meals, not everyday home cooking.
For our anniversary dinner, we had a delicate consomme before the main course.
Not Just Broth
Though similar to broth, consomme is clarified to be perfectly clear and more concentrated in flavor.
I was impressed by how clear the consomme was, with such a rich taste.
