    Boiling is the method of cooking food in boiling water or other water-based liquids such as stock or milk. [13] Simmering is gentle boiling, while in poaching the cooking liquid moves but scarcely bubbles. [14] The boiling point of water is typically considered to be 100 °C (212 °F; 373 K), especially at sea level.

  5. Boiling point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_point

    Water boiling at 99.3 °C (210.8 °F) at 215 m (705 ft) elevation. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid [1] [2] and the liquid changes into a vapor. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the surrounding environmental pressure.

    This is because steam at 100°C has much more internal energy than water and can transfer it to the food faster through the agitation of a rolling boil. 203.27.72.5 01:08, 21 June 2012 (UTC) Keep in mind that a given volume of pure water actually contains more H 2 O than the same volume of salt water. Because salt water is an imperfect mixture ...

  9. Convection (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_(Heat_transfer)

    Hot areas are shown in red, cold areas are shown in blue. A hot, less-dense material at the bottom moves upwards, and likewise, cold material from the top moves downwards. Convection (or convective heat transfer) is the transfer of heat from one place to another due to the movement of fluid.
