Dry Heat Cooking
Goal 1: Basic Hot Food Production
![Page 2: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Definition
• Uses oil, fat, the radiation of hot air or metal to transfer heat
• No moisture is used• Moisture from food evaporates (liquid escapes
from a pan as vapor)
![Page 3: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
1. Sauteing
• Quick, dry cooking technique that uses a small amount of fat or oil in a shallow pan to cook foods
• Used for delicate or fragile foods that cook relatively quickly
• Examples: fish fillets, scallops, tender cuts of meat, vegetables, fruits
• Often served with sauce
![Page 4: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Sauteing Equipment
• Wok• Saute pan• Range• Griddle
![Page 5: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Sauteing Method1. Preheat pan on high heat.2. Add a small amount of fat or oil.3. Add food only after the fat or oil is heated (hot).
DO NOT OVERCROWD THE PAN! This will lower the temperature of the food and it will not seal properly.
4. Allow food to seal. (allow surface of food to brown)5. Lower the temperature so the food cooks evenly
throughout.6. Turn food in the pan. (not frequently)

2. Stir-Frying
• similar to sauteing• require less cooking time than sauteed foods• uses a higher temperature• vegetables and tender, boneless meats

Stir-Frying Methods
1. Place a wok over high heat.2. Add a small amount of fat.3. Add small pieces of food. (food should be
uniform in size so that it will cook evenly)4. Constantly stir the food as it cooks.

3. Frying
• food is cooked in larger amounts of hot fat or oil• outside of the food becomes sealed when it comes
in contact with the hot oil • The natural moisture that is in the food turns to
steam, which bubbles up to the surface• Since the outside of the food is sealed, fried foods
are moist and juicy on the inside.• Fried foods are coated to add flavor and texture.
![Page 10: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Types of Frying
• Pan frying- cover about ½ to ¾ of food in fat or oil/oil temperature 350-375 F/food must be turned/chicken, potatoes, fish, pork chops
• Deep fat frying- submerge food in to fat or oil/oil temperature 350-375 F/potatoes, onions, fish, poultry
![Page 11: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Coatings for Fried Foods
• Dredging- coat heavily with flour or finely ground crumbs
• Breading- coating made from eggs and crumbs
• Batter- semi-liquid mixture that contains flour, milk, eggs, seasonings/food is dipped immediately before frying
![Page 12: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Frying Equipment
• Deep fat fryer• Saucepan• Cast iron skillet• Commercial deep fat fryer- less recovery time
(time it takes for fat to heat back up)
![Page 13: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Frying Methods
1. Heat oil to 350-375.2. Dredge, bread, or batter food.3. Fry food until it reaches the proper internal
temperature. Usually the recipe will give a frying time. Check the temperature after the time is up.
![Page 14: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Tips to Follow after Frying
1. After foods have been fried, remove them from the oil and drain well on an absorbent surface.
2. Add seasoning.3. Serve immediately or place under a heat lamp (uses
infrared spectrum) to keep food warm during holding so it will not become soggy.
4. Change oil frequently. Oil will last longer if correct temperature is used. (smoking point- the temperature at which an oil will smoke. This will give the product a funny taste and color)

Frying Safety and Sanitation
• Never put water on a grease fire. Use a Class B (grease, oil, chemicals) or Class K (fire in cooking appliance that contains fat or oils) fire extinguisher.
• Frozen foods causes oil to pop. • Always check the internal temperature of fried
foods.• Separate frying oil used for foods that contain
common food allergies.

4. Grilling
• Used for tender foods that cook relatively quickly
![Page 17: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Grilling Equipment
• Gas, electric, charcoal, wood fire grill• griddle
![Page 18: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Grilling Methods
1. Preheat the grill.2. Brush the food lightly with oil. (most food)3. Place food on the grill.4. Leave the food on the grill until grill marks appear.5. Turn food to create crisscross grill marks. (10 and 2)6. Flip food and create crisscross grill marks on the
other side.7. Check the internal temperature of meat to make
sure it is done.
![Page 19: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Griddle Use
• Flat, solid plate of metal with a gas or electric heat source
• grilled cheese, breakfast items • Temperature 350 F• Grooved Griddle- create grill marks but not
smoky taste
![Page 20: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
5. Broiling
• Cook food directly under a primary heat source
• Thicker food should be placed farther from the heat source so that the inside and outside of the food cooks at the same rate.
• Tender foods- vegetables, meats, poultry
![Page 21: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Broiling Equipment
• Range or oven• Broiling pan• Broiling rack
![Page 22: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Broiling Methods
1. Turn oven to the broil setting.2. Place seasoned food on broiling pan. This will
create grill marks on the food. (do not salt food, this draws out the liquid and makes it dry)
3. Place the food at the appropriate distance from the heat source. (thin close/thick further away)
4. Watch food closely.5. Check internal temperature to make sure food is
done.
![Page 23: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
6. Roasting• Food is usually uncovered on a rack inside a roasting
pan.• Usually involves longer cooking time than baking• Some food needs to be constantly basted. (spoon
melted fats, pan drippings, or other liquids during cooking)
• Large food continues to cook 5-15 minutes after is removed from the oven. (carry over cooking/outside of the food is hotter than the inside/the temperature stabilizes/adds 5 to 15 degrees to the final temperature of the product
![Page 24: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Roasting Equipment
• Hotel pan• Sheet pan• Convection oven• Deck oven • Loaf pan• Tube pan• Roasting pan
![Page 25: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Roasting Methods
• Searing- to quickly brown the outside of food at the start of the cooking process/enhances flavors and adds colors/creates juices for sauces
1. Heat the pan with a small amount of oil on the rangetop.
2. Brown the meat on one side.3. Turn the meat and brown on the other side.4. Place the pan in a hot oven to finish cooking.
![Page 26: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
or
1. Place the food on a pan into a 450 F-475 F oven.
2. Cook the meat for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
3. Reduce the heat to 325 F-350 F to finish the cooking process.
![Page 27: Dry Heat Cooking](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061410/5681635d550346895dd427b0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Open-Spit Roasting
1. Place food on a metal rod or long skewer.2. Slowly turn it over the heat source.
Commercial roaster will automatically turn food.
3. Place a drip pan under the food source.4. Check the internal temperature of food.
Food will continue to cook 5-15 minutes after you remove it.

7. Baking
• No fat or liquid is added to the cooking process• Bread, chicken, fish, vegetables, fruits, pastries• Food is uncovered- moisture comes from food and
is turned into steam and evaporates into the air• Large food continues to cook 5-15 minutes after it
is removed from the oven. (carry over cooking/outside of the food is hotter than the inside/the temperature stabilizes/adds 5 to 15 degrees to the final temperature of the product
