airy texture
Light and porous
Airy texture describes a light, delicate quality in food or fabric—something with open space throughout rather than density.
Baked goods with airy texture are fluffy and well-risen: The soufflé had a perfectly airy texture.
Fabrics with airy texture feel loose and breathable.
The term emphasizes lightness achieved through incorporated air or open weave.
