Definition of broiler

broilernoun

thịt nướng

/ˈbrɔɪlə(r)//ˈbrɔɪlər/

The word "broiler" originally referred to a young chicken, specifically one raised for roasting. It evolved from the Old French word "brouiller," meaning "to stir or confuse," referencing the way chickens were often moved around in their enclosures. This connection to movement and activity led to the word "broiler" being used for cooking devices that use direct, intense heat to quickly cook food, mimicking the way a young chicken was roasted. Over time, "broiler" came to encompass both the cooking method and the appliance itself.
