Advantages:Efficient method of cooking.
Disadvantages:Take a Long duration of time to cook and loss of nutrients and flavour from food.
Examples:Minced meat & Egg]]> 2017-03-28 02:02:22 UTC https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/162993200 https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/162993271 Description:
Simmering is the method of cooking food at a temperature just below the boiling point of water (100 degrees). The heating is done gently such that small bubbles will rise to the surface and break gently. Heat is transferred to the food through convection.
Advantages:
Healthy method of cooking as little or no oil is used. Food becomes soft and digestible. Soft food does not break apart easily.
Disadvantages:
Require more energy due to the longer cooking time]]> 2017-03-28 02:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/162993271 https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/162993720 Description:It is a slower method of cooking,compared to simmering
Advantages:a Food becomes soft and digestable
Disadvantages:Require more energy(fuel) due to the longer cooking time
Example:
-tough cuts of meat
-hard fruits like pears and apples]]> 2017-03-28 02:08:11 UTC https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/162993720 https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/162994225 2017-03-28 02:13:37 UTC https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/162994225 https://padlet.com/nirmala_k_periyiah/moistheat/wish/164139321 Description:It is the method of cooking usually for thick cuts of meat.Heat is transferred to food through convection and conduction.
Advantages:
Disadvantages:Take a lot of time to cook
