酥

• Pinyin: sū
• Desglose de hanzi: 酥 = 禾 (grain/food radical) + 酉 (vessel for fermented substances) — originally a dairy product; now describes flaky/crispy food textures

Significado

Crujiente, hojaldrado o desmenuzable (de textura, sobre todo en comida); también una sensación corporal agradablemente entumecida o floja.

In culinary contexts, 酥 is a highly positive descriptor for pastries, fried foods, and baked goods, indicating a light, brittle texture that breaks apart easily. In describing bodily sensations, it conveys a pleasurable or overwhelmed softness — limbs feeling weak or tingly from music, massage, or emotion. Used in everyday speech and food writing alike.
