U+714E "煎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
煎
U+714E "煎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to fry in shallow oil" or "to simmer" and is traditionally used in cooking contexts. It belongs to the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, and Korean) unified ideographs block, and its structure combines the fire radical (火) on the left with the phonetic component "前" on the right. In modern usage, it appears in common words such as "煎蛋" (fried egg) and "煎熬" (suffering or torment, metaphorically derived from the process of frying), reflecting both its literal culinary meaning and its extended figurative sense of enduring heat or hardship.
