Wikipedia

  1. Simmering

    Simmering is a food preparation technique by which foods are cooked in hot liquids kept just below the boiling point of water (lower than 100 °C or 212 °F) and above poaching temperature (higher than 71–80 °C or 160–176 °F). To create a steady simmer, a liquid is brought to a boil, then its heat source is reduced to a lower, constant temperature.

  1. simmering

    Simmering is a cooking process where liquid is kept just below the boiling point - typically around 180-205 degrees Fahrenheit or 85-95 degrees Celsius. In simmering, small bubbles occasionally rise to the surface due to the gentle heat. It's often used for slow-cooking dishes, reducing sauces, or preparing delicate foods that could otherwise be damaged by more intense heat.
