Blanderize
The act of converting a highly flavoursome or spicy dish of african/asian/etc origin, to a bland, dull and less spicy-flavoured version. This consequently makes it suitable for consumption by mainstream english-speaking people who have conservative food tastes. This can also be applied to bland/dull dishes created in the western world but attributed to foreign origins.
