Break up the leaf cells
Hi
Fermentation process, known as oxidation, occurs after the leaves are left to dry on racks. Then they are twisted and rolled to break up the leaf cells and release the essential oils, which remain on the leaves.
--- Does "break up" here mean the same as "squash"?

Newguest Does "break up" here mean the same as "squash"? Sort of, but squashing is pressing, while twisting and rolling does not necessarily include a lot of pressure.
