sudsing
Creating soap bubbles
Sudsing is the production of suds—the frothy bubbles formed by soap or detergent in water.
A dish soap might be praised for its sudsing action.
The word often appears in product descriptions and household contexts: This detergent offers excellent sudsing even in hard water.
To suds or suds up means to lather something, making sudsing the ongoing process of generating foam.
