Etymology

() From Old French parboillir (“to boil thoroughly”), from Medieval Latin perbullire, from Latin per (“thoroughly”) + bullire (“to boil”). Sense “to boil partially” (c.1440), rather than original “to boil thoroughly” is by corruption: associating the prefix with part (from Latin pars (“part”)) rather than per.“” in the Online Etymology Dictionary, Douglas Harper, 2001
