	isinglass iriko ironware irradiation isinglass Italian bread Italian dandelion Italian dressing Definition: [I-zuhn-glas; I-zing-glas] Transparent and pure, this form of gelatin comes from the air bladders of certain fish, especially the sturgeon. It was popular 100 years ago, particularly for making jellies and to clarify wine.
