undermixed
Not stirred enough
Undermixed describes something that hasn't been mixed enough, leaving components insufficiently combined.
In baking, undermixed batter may have streaks of flour or uneven texture: The muffins were dense because the dough was undermixed.
The term appears in any context where thorough blending matters—paint, concrete, audio tracks.
