I. Compare and Contrast. Enumerate the similarities and differences of the following.
Similarities: Sautéing and frying are two similar cooking methods that make use of heating
food items with dry heat. The similarities are obvious with food items being heated in a pan
containing some kind of cooking oil over direct flame.
Differences: Sautéing is a method of cooking food items over hot pan containing a little
amount of fat or oil. The pan is shallow, and the food items are spread all over the pan, to receive
the heat quickly from the hot pan. Frying is a very common cooking method that makes use of
dry heat as the food items are placed in a pan containing hot oil. Frying requires food items to be
kept relatively large and keeping the heat moderately high.
Differences: entrée is the terms used to refer the actual main course while the hors d oeuvre is
first course or appetizer
Similarities: Simmer and boil are variations of the same cooking procedure that requires recipes
to be heated over the flame in a pan.
Differences. You need to simmer the liquids rather than allowing them to boil for these recipes.
Simmer takes place at below the boiling point of water, and the range for simmer is 185-205
degrees Fahrenheit. Boil is a method of cooking that requires you to bring the liquids to a
boiling point. The bubbles get a chance to break free and come to the top of the surface of the
liquid when it reaches its boiling point. The liquid is in a stage where it is churning vigorously.
The temperature of water, if it is used alone for cooking, reaches 212 degrees Fahrenheit
Similarities: Both braise and stews are methods of cooking that use moisture and heat to cook
the food. The amount of liquid is what distinguishes these two methods.
Differences. Whether animal or vegetable, the miracle of braising only happens when the food
is partially submerged in the cooking liquid. stews call for slow cooking and low temps. With
braises, where you’re adding the least amount of liquid required to cook the meat or vegetables,
stews require full submersion, and usually call for the meat or vegetables to be cut into uniform
pieces for even cooking. The result is a broth-gravy hybrid that’s just as desirable as the meat or
vegetable itself.

5. Boil and Broil.
As nouns the difference between boil and broil
is that boil is a localized accumulation of pus in the skin, resulting from infection or boil can be
the point at which fluid begins to change to a vapour while broil is food prepared by broiling
or broil can be (archaic) a brawl; a rowdy disturbance.
