U+81BE "膾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
U+81BE "膾" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that represents the concept of minced or finely chopped meat, particularly raw fish or meat, and is commonly associated with the culinary term "kuài" in classical Chinese cuisine, as seen in dishes like "yúkuài" (sashimi-style raw fish). Its structure combines the radical for flesh or meat, "⺼" (a form of "肉"), with the phonetic component "會" (huì, meaning "to meet" or "to assemble"), reflecting both its meaning and pronunciation. In modern East Asian languages, this character is used in Japanese as "膾" (namasu), referring to a vinegared dish of sliced raw vegetables and sometimes seafood, and in Korean as "회" (hoe), denoting raw meat or fish dishes. The character holds historical significance in texts describing ancient Chinese feasts and remains a recognizable symbol for raw preparations in East Asian gastronomic traditions.
