What are three ways that cooking alters food?

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

answers will vary, for example grilling uses a heat source such as gas, charcoal or wood-burning below the cooking surface; heat is transferred to the food through infrared radiant heat and conduction between the food and the grill rack; in traditional barbecue, large, usually tough, cuts of meat are cooked by natural convection in a semi-enclosed oven (called a pit) with the smoke from a hardwood fire at low temperatures, generally below 225°F; true barbecue is a slow process, requiring many hours of low temperature heat and smoke to tenderize tough cuts or whole carcasses.
