Full Definition

قَتَّتَII see 1, first sentence.

def.2 تَقْتِيتٌ also signifies The collecting of odoriferous substances, or aromatics, of all sorts, in a cooking-pot, and cooking them: and one does not say قُتِّتَ except of olive-oil when it is thus prepared [i. e. it means it was, or has been, cooked with all sorts of odoriferous substances, or aromatics]: thus says Khálid Ibn-Jembeh: IF adds that الزَّيْتِ is like تَقْتِيتُهُ [in meaning]: and Zj says that الدُّهْنَ means the same as قَتَّتُّهُ [i. e. I cooked the oil with all sorts of odoriferous substances, &c.]. [See also مُقَتَّتٌ, below.]
