U+7096 "炖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

炖

U+7096 "炖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to stew" or "to simmer slowly" in cooking, often referring to a method of preparing food by cooking it gently in liquid over low heat for an extended period to tenderize ingredients and blend flavors. This character belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) unified ideographs block, which standardizes characters from these languages for digital encoding, and it is composed of the radical "火" (fire) on the left, indicating its association with heat or cooking, and the phonetic component "屯" on the right, which contributes to its pronunciation. Commonly used in Chinese culinary contexts, "炖" appears in dishes like "炖汤" (stewed soup) or "炖肉" (stewed meat), and it also carries a secondary figurative meaning of "to keep warm" or "to preserve" by extension of the slow heating process.
