    I'm very amused by the fact that a highly specific French word (my original language) made its way to and is being used in Oz. Talking of course of the composite word "bain-marie" {with a hyphen). Its current meaning in English is the following: "Double boilers may also be called bain maries, which is the French term for the method of cooking with indirect heat from steam. Translating to "Mary's bath," the bain marie gets its name from the ancient Grecian alchemist who is credited with inventing the technique to heat chemicals." More precisely: "Du latin médiéval balneum Mariae (« bain de Marie »), en référence à l’alchimiste Marie la Juive (IIIe siècle av. J.-C.), à qui l’on attribue également l’origine de certains ustensiles de laboratoire et l’emploi de la technique comme outil. La première attestation en latin Balneum Mariae date du début du XIVe siècle, dans le Rosarium attribué à Arnaud de Villeneuve." In France, the main application of the "bain-marie" technique is to heat up your baby's milk bottle. You put it in a "double bath" so that it gets warm, but not so hot that it would harm the baby. Very interesting video as always, Poly. Thanks!
