Cooking Term Confusion

31.12.69

Have you ever noticed the ambiguity when it comes to the use of some common cooking terms? I have, I guess it is the slave to technicality gene that I possess. Here’s an example: Cuisinart advertises a blender that can sauté soup ingredients and blend them all in the blender carafe. By definition, that’s not possible because the Pro Chef defines sauté as “to cook quickly in a small amount of fat in a pan on the stovetop.” The actual translation of the word sauté means to jump; not liquefy. Here are the differences of some terms that are often confused:

Gravy vs. Sauce: gravy is made using the meat juices from the meat in which the gravy is intended, while a sauce is based on a stock or broth.

Boil vs. Simmer vs. Poach: while they all refer to cooking in a hot liquid, each one represents a different temperature range in which something is cooked. Boiling is 212° or higher if being cooked in a pressure cooker and is usually used for meat of some type because it won’t easily break apart. Simmering is in the 185° - 200° range which is used for boiling eggs for egg salad or deviled eggs. Poaching is in the 165° - 184° range which is the most gentle of the three and is always used for eggs and fish or any other food that is delicate.
