Flamb is an obsolete Scottish culinary term meaning to baste roasted meat — to spoon or brush fat, juices, or liquid over meat as it roasts to keep it moist and build flavour. Archaic and confined to historical Scottish cooking texts and dialect records; the modern equivalent is simply 'baste.' Interesting primarily as a historical linguistic curiosity showing French influence on Scots culinary vocabulary, likely via the Auld Alliance connection between Scotland and France.
(obsolete, Scottish) A flirtatious or cheeky girl.
