Flavouring is a substance you put into food or drink so it tastes of something, or so that taste is stronger. Vanilla flavouring in cake, strawberry flavouring in sweets, a few drops in a fizzy drink: that is this word. It can come from a real plant, or it can be made in a factory to copy that taste. Packets in Britain say flavouring or flavourings; American packets say flavoring.
The taste itself is flavour. Flavouring is the extra you add. A vanilla pod and a bottle of vanilla flavouring can both make ice cream taste of vanilla, but they are not the same thing — one is the plant, the other is a prepared substance, sometimes very strong, sometimes a bit fake if you use too much.
Though actually, home cooks also say , but that is more salt, pepper, and herbs. Flavouring is especially the , , or industrial kind, the thing on an ingredients list. You can also count it: a flavouring, several flavourings.
組成flavour + -ing, here naming the substance, not the action.
