Use of "blitz" to mean using a blender.
I am in the UK and nowadays see many TV chefs and newspaper writers use the
term "to blitz" to mean to use a blender for a short period of time. What's wrong with "use the blender" or even "blend" instead of "blitz"? Presumably the verb "to blitz" has come from American English but why is it so widespread when all it doesis replace a perfectly good existing word? -- crossposted to English and food groups |
