Definition of «searing»

The term "searing" refers to a high heat cooking method that involves quickly bringing food into contact with a hot surface or flame, typically using a grill or broiler. This process can cause the exterior of the food to become browned and sometimes charred while the interior remains raw. The purpose of searing is often to create a flavorful crust on the outside of the food while also helping to lock in moisture and tenderize tough cuts of meat.
