小知识
When you macerate something, you soften it by soaking it in a liquid, often while you're cooking or preparing food.
To macerate strawberries, all you have to do is sprinkle sugar on them, which draws out their juices so they become soft and sweet and deliciously saucy. Macerate is sometimes also used to mean “cause to grow thin or weak,” or in other words, to make someone feel like a soft, squishy strawberry.
