Italian term or phrase: cuocere sulla graticola
C'é una Redewendung corrispondente, nel senso di essere tenuto in sospeso in attesa di una risposta importante?

Esempio: "Non è ancora stata presa una decisione al riguardo. Dovremo cuocere sulla graticola fino a martedì."

Grazie in anticipo per qualsiasi aiuto.
