9-letter Foods that contain M

List of 9-letter Foods that contain M

1

Almond Oil

A pale, lightly nutty oil pressed from almonds — used both as a delicate finishing oil in Mediterranean cooking and as a skin-moisturizing carrier oil in cosmetics.

2

Camembert

A small, soft, bloomy-rind cow's-milk cheese from Normandy with a velvety white crust and an oozing pale-yellow interior — younger and earthier than Brie but the same cheese family.

3

Carambola

A glossy yellow tropical fruit that produces five-pointed star slices when cut crosswise — Southeast Asian in origin, sweet-tart, and the source of the alternate name "star fruit."

4

Goat's Milk

Milk from domestic goats — slightly tangier than cow's milk, naturally homogenized by smaller fat globules, and the second-most-consumed milk worldwide.

5

Guacamole

Mexico's most famous condiment — a simple, fresh dip of mashed avocado with lime juice, coriander, onion, and chilli; invented by the Aztec people using the same basic technique still used today; the quality depends entirely on ripe avocados, and fresh guacamole must be made and eaten immediately before it discolours.

6

Hamburger

A ground beef patty served in a sliced bun, an American icon with deep German roots, now globally pervasive.

7

Jambalaya

A Louisiana one-pot rice dish blending Spanish paella, French country cooking, and West African influences — meat, sausage, vegetables, and rice cooked together in stock.

8

Lemon Curd

A smooth, intensely tangy preserve made from eggs, butter, sugar, and fresh lemon juice — thicker and richer than jam, with a vivid yellow colour and a clean, bright flavour; used as a spread on toast and scones, a filling for tarts and cakes, and a swirl in cheesecakes and ice cream; requires careful making — the eggs curdle if overheated — but keeps for weeks refrigerated.

9

Madeleine

A small, shell-shaped French sponge cake from the Lorraine region — light, buttery, and flavoured with lemon zest, baked in a distinctive shell-shaped mould; the madeleine owes its extraordinary cultural fame to Marcel Proust, whose narrator in In Search of Lost Time triggers a rush of involuntary memory upon tasting one dipped in tea, making it the literary symbol of nostalgia and sensory memory.

10

Margarine

An emulsion of vegetable oils and water designed as a butter substitute — invented in 19th-century France for naval rations and now a global pantry staple.

11

Marmalade

The bittersweet British breakfast preserve — a citrus jelly made from bitter Seville oranges, with shreds of peel suspended throughout; distinguished from jam by its bitter edge, its orange peel texture, and its exclusive association with citrus; Dundee in Scotland became the global capital of marmalade production, and Keiller's Dundee marmalade has been made since the 1790s; Paddington Bear's devotion to it is the most famous brand association in British food.

12

Mince Pies

Small, enclosed pastry tarts filled with mincemeat — a sweet mixture of dried fruit, suet, spices, and brandy or spirits — eaten throughout the Christmas season in Britain; traditionally containing actual minced meat in medieval times, today the filling is entirely fruit-based; served warm or cold, dusted with icing sugar, and considered obligatory at Christmas parties and carol services.

13

Mushy Peas

A British comfort staple of dried marrowfat peas soaked and simmered until broken down into a thick, vivid green purée — served alongside fish and chips as an essential side dish, with pie and mash in London pie shops, and at chip shops throughout the North of England; the colour comes from mint or a small amount of food dye.

14

Sesame Oil

An aromatic oil pressed from sesame seeds — fundamental to East Asian cuisine, with roasted (toasted) and unroasted versions serving very different culinary purposes.
