Palate cleanser

A palate-cleanser is a serving of food or drink that removes food residue from the tongue, allowing one to more accurately assess a new flavor.

Palate-cleansers are often used between tasting wines, cheeses, or other strong flavors.^[1] Pickled ginger is used as a palate-cleanser between sushi pieces.^[2]
