At what temperature does slow boiling take place?

At what temperature does slow boiling take place? Correct Answer at 85ºC to 96ºC

Slow boiling takes place at 85ºC to 96ºC.

Key Points

  •  Water boils at 100° C, which is the highest temperature for water to boil and start to become steam.
  • In slow-boiling, the temperature of the water is slightly below the boiling point of water.
  • Through slow-boiling, the food cooks slowly and uniformly, it is similar to simmering.

Additional InformationSimmering:

  • The simmering point of a liquid is the temperature at which the bubbles have just started to form and the liquid is gently moving.
  • Simmered dishes include stews and gravies.
  • Simmering ensures gentler treatment than boiling to prevent food from toughening and/or breaking up.
  • Simmering is usually a rapid and efficient method of cooking.
  • Simmer takes place below the boiling point of water, and the range for simmer is 185 - 205° F.
