folding technique
Method of bending
A folding technique is a method for bending or layering material to achieve a specific result.
In cooking, folding incorporates a lighter mixture into a heavier one without deflating it: Use a gentle folding technique to add the egg whites.
In crafts like origami, folding techniques create shapes from flat paper.
The term appears wherever precise manipulation of flexible materials matters—textiles, pastry, metalwork.
