To enclose or confine within a kernel or core; to form into a kernel.
From 'en-' (into) plus 'kernel,' which comes from Old English 'cyrnel,' a diminutive of 'corn,' originally meaning 'small grain' or 'seed.' The word evolved to mean the central or most important part of something.
While 'kernel' is now common in computing and science (think of operating system kernels), the original meaning was simply the seed inside a nut—and this verb 'enkernel' captures that idea of something becoming concentrated into a core.
