  3. Blend-To combine or mix so that the constituent parts are indistinguishable from one another. • Coat/dredge -To lightly coat food in a powdered substance such as breadcrumbs, cornmeal, flour. Most foods require dipping in a liquid, such as egg or milk, in order for the powdered substance to adhere to the food. • Chop-To cut into small pieces. • Combine-To join (two or more substances) to make a single substance, mix.
