What are disadvantages of simmering?

Answer 1

This is a very slow process. Pieces of meat may fall apart. The fire cannot be up too high or the liquids would evaporate causing the food to burn. If the stove is too low, and too much liquid is in the stew the gravy may not dry in time. Gravy may bee too long.

Answer 2

Advantages of stewing include cooking down the toughness of certain food ingredients, and that stewing is easily large enough for a whole family. Disadvantages of stewing include turning certain ingredients into mush over cooking time, and that stewing may take too long for someone who doesn't have the time.

Answer 3

Advantages: healthy method, economical in labour as foods can be bulk cooked, inhances flavours, enriched nutrients of foods as the juices are served as the sauce. Disadvantages: slow method, meat can fall apart if not correctly cooked,

Answer 4

Stewing takes a long time, and is best used on fairly fatty cuts of meat, otherwise they tend to dry out and taste chewy.

On the plus side, stewing involves cooking in a lot of liquid, so you can pretty much leave the stew on a low heat or in a low oven, forget about it and come back in a few hours when it's cooked. The amount of hands-on time to prepare the stew is fairly minimal.

Stew is a one-pot dish, so you get minimal washing up. However this is a disadvantage if everybody in the family prefers slightly different ingredients in their meal, since you cannot easily prepare stews separately to everybody's liking.

Answer 5

Stewing is a slow method of cooking.
