Braising - slow cooking technique
Braising is a culinary technique combining searing and slow cooking. Meat is first quickly seared over high heat to create a caramelized crust, then placed in a pot with liquid and cooked at low temperature for several hours.
- Braising combines two techniques, quick searing and slow stewing.
- The word comes from the French braiser, to cook in a closed pot.
- Ideal braising temperature is 150-170 °C (300-340 °F).
- This technique is ideal for tough cuts like beef brisket or shoulder.
