Radiant Heat

Dry Heat Methods: Volume 1 - Some cooking methods rely on dry heat without fats or oils. The food is cooked either by a direct application of radiant heat (grilling and broiling) or by indirect heat in the oven (roasting and baking). The result of these cooking methods is a highly flavored exterior and moist interior. Dry Heat Methods: Volume 2 - The cooking techniques presented in this DVD rely on a fat or oil as the cooking medium. Since dry heat does not have a tenderizing effect, any food prepared using these cooking methods must be naturally tender or should be prepared in a way that will introduce additional moisture. Once you have developed these skills, you can begin the process of refining and creating virtually endless variations employing dry-heat cooking methods.
