Morphology

sapidness = sapid (transparent) = sapid + ness

Formed directly from the adjective 'sapid' with the noun-forming suffix '-ness', so the meaning is the quality of being sapid.

Etymology

The word sapidness comes from an old Latin root sap- meaning 'taste', the same root you see in savor. So, sapidness is the quality of being tasty or having a pleasant flavor.
