redip

Immerse a second time

To redip is to dip again—returning something to a liquid or substance it was previously immersed in: She redipped the brush in the paint.

The word appears in cooking, crafting, and anywhere repeated dipping is needed: Redip the strawberries for a thicker chocolate coating.
