If food is flambé, someone has poured a strong drink such as brandy over it and set the drink on fire for a short moment. The flames look dramatic at the table; they burn off most of the alcohol and leave a warm taste behind. You hear this in restaurants and on cooking shows more than in a normal home kitchen, because the fire is part of the show. People also use it as a verb: to flambé something. It feels a bit fancy and French. Though actually, the cook is not trying to burn the food — the flames should die quickly. Without the little mark on the e, some readers miss that this is the cooking word.
火焰料理（把酒澆上再點火的那種；菜單常寫「火焰××」）
組成Borrowed from French flambé, from the verb flamber, to flame or singe.
