Etymology[edit]
Lisa Fong is a television personality who hosts cooking shows, in which she often moves on to the next step with an identical dish that is prepared in advance, due to time constraints. Hence her method of teaching cookery is described as 整定 (zing2 ding6, “pre-made, prepared in advance”), which has another sense of “predestined; preordained”.
