Simmering
>==Purpose==
To slowly cook liquid foods, or foods in liquid just below the boiling point.
Equipment
Medium heavy sauce pan
Technique
- Adjust heat so that the liquid emits a few small bubbles
Considerations
This technique is used in so many contexts it's difficult to pin it down. If you are cooking liquid food (such as a sauce or a stew) that is at risk for sticking, make sure that you stir it frequently and scrape the bottom.
