Stir-frying in the food context refers to a cooking technique that involves quickly frying small, uniform pieces of food in a small amount of hot oil while stirring constantly. This method is most commonly associated with Asian cuisine, particularly Chinese, but it has been adopted worldwide for its efficiency and ability to preserve the texture and nutrients of ingredients.

Stock Cubes mean Bouillon cubes in Great Britain.

Stockfisch is a German word for dried cod

Stoemp refers to Belgium's mashed potatoes with bacon and cream, and flavored with herbs and spices. Other root vegetables are sometimes used to prepare this dish.

Stol is the Russian word for table

Stollen is a German traditional oblong-shaped baked bread (Gebäck) for Christmas. It is made from heavy or rich yeast/leavened dough with butter, sugar, eggs and a bit of salt. It is spiced with cinammon (zimt), nutmeg (muskat), with grated almonds and raisins (Rosinen) and candied dried fruits (Trockenfructen) and drizzeled with powdered sugar. Some versions are filled with Marzipan or Poppy seeds (Mohn) at the center.

Stoofperen refers to a Dutch dessert of braised pears which is made from a dutch variety of a cooking pear, called Gieser Wildeman. Gieser Wildeman are inedible when raw (very hard, almost like quinces ), but become ruby-red and meltingly soft when cooked for hours in a sugar syrup. To make Stoofperen, cook the pears in the pan with cinnamon stick, a couple of tablespoons of sugar, some water, and a splash of red wine. Stoofperen is traditionally eaten as a side dish to stewed/braised meat, but now eaten as a dessert, too with rice porridge.

Storage:

2. You can store at 32 to 35 degrees in refrigerator for up to 18 months, if sealed well.

Storione is the Italian word for sturgeon, a kind of large fish valued for its meat or flesh and roe as caviar.

Stout in the food context refers to a dark, strong beer with a rich, malty flavour, often characterised by roasted barley, coffee, and chocolate notes. This style of beer is known for its thick, creamy texture and is typically brewed with a higher percentage of roasted malts, which give it its distinctive deep brown to black colour. Stout is popular not only as a drink but also as an ingredient in cooking, where its robust flavour is used to enhance dishes, particularly in stews, marinades, desserts, and sauces.
