What burn a surface so as to change its color or taste but without completely destroying it?
to sear meat to carmelize onions and garlic and sugar
Why are elephant ears brown?
Because the sugars in the batter carmelize in the hot oil. Same reason for the brown color of doughnuts, cookies, fried onions, steak, etc.
Does lighting liquor on fire make it stronger Ex. Lighting shots on fire?
Lighting liquor on fire makes the drink less strong. The flame is burning alcohol and weakening the drink. A common reason for lighting a shot ( other than the thrill ) is to carmelize sugar in the drink on the rim.
What is carmelization?
Actually, it should be "Where" is Carmel? -there are many places (cities) in the world with that name. Conversely, there is a candy named caramel. I once dated a Carmel Candy, and yes, she WAS so sweet that she would rot your teeth! ;)

Do you have to cook a meal before you freeze it for later?
Sure - But you need to ensure that it's strong enough to take bacteria in many ways like dents, empty vacuum spaces, etc. Or, you can double boil it after canning. Or, you can steam bake it after canning.
How fast is a toaster?
When the starches reach 310 degrees Fahrentheit they start to carmelize (turn brown) - so the air in the toaster reaches at least 310 degrees Fahrentheit. The heating elements themselves, made of nickel-chromium alloy, can reach 1100-1200 degrees Fahrehneit
Is sugar stored in the onion or potato?
Sweet onion is a variety of onion that is not pungent. There are several varieties of sweet onion. Although all onions have sugar, sweet onions have a very low sulfur content as compared to typical onions. Also, the water content is comparatively very high. These differences emphasize the sweetness of the onion.from an encyclodia.
Is making Sugar into sugar syrup a physical change or chemical change?
Unless you overdo it and carmelize it, it is a physical change. A typical process is to dissolve a large amount of sugar into hot water (physical change - the sugar is still sugar and the water is still water; they do not react. If the sugar-water is not syrupy enough, you can boil off some of the water (still a physical change). If you overdo it though, you will begin to caramelize the sugar. If the sugar is sucrose, it breaks down into fructose and sucrose along with a host of other side reactions that condense, isomerize, dehydrate, fragment, polymerize, and otherwise chemically change the original sugar. Caramelization is definitely a chemical change, but it is not necessary to make syrup.
Does sugar expand or contract when heated?
no it don't unless u put more sugar in it Correct answer: Most things expand when heated and contract when cooled. Exceptions are things like ice. Ice actually expands and is less dense than water, because of the way the ice crystals form. However, when you get below -4 degrees Celsius, it also will increase density the colder it gets. The key to this is that cold is only a concept used to describe a relative loss of heat. Cold is a concept and cannot be measured. Only heat can be measured, because only heat is energy. EVERYTHING has a certain amount of heat energy, even ice. The more heat energy that a material has, the more excited the atoms get. They start to vibrate and push the surrounding atoms away from themselves. As the vibrations get more and more intense, the material expands. When the expansion gets intense enough, the solid state matter will become a liquid state matter. Increase it even more, it will turn to a gas state. So short version - it expands. In fact, if you heat it up enough, it will turn into a liquid. Cooks use this to "carmelize" food. Sprinkle sugar on a food (like a dessert or a ham), heat gently, sugar melts and when it cools, it becomes a nice sweet glaze on the food.
Russian Jewish Cabbage Rolls?
Ingredients1 Large head of cabbage1 Large onion, chopped6 Small carrots3 Stalks celery1/4 ts Salt1 1/2 c Tomato juice1 lb Hamburger2 Slices bread1 Egg1/4 c Water2 cn Tomatoes1 c Sugar2 LemonsDash pepperCore cabbage and place in large saucepan.

Add hamburger, egg, salt and pepper. Mix together well. Slice thick stem base off cabbage leaves. Place some meat misture on leaf. Fold and roll, place seam side down in saucepan. On top of cabbage rolls, place onions, carrots, and celery. Pour tomatoes and tomato juice over all. Carmelize 1 cup sugar in heavy skillet. Add to cabbage roll mixture. Juice 2 lemons and add as final ingredient. Simmer 2 hours uncovered.This recipe says sauce pan but I used a 13 cake pan. It doesn't specify degrees, so I picked 350. The cake pan holds the rolls and then the carrots and celery can be decorative by laying them horizontally, alternating. It makes a pretty dish. And it is good. Well worth the effort.
