Sweat [swet]

This unfortunately named technique involves cooking vegetables slowly in a covered pan, to make them tender but not take on colour. More moisture will be retained in the vegetables, and any juices that escape will concentrate in the cooking fat.

Recipe using the sweat method

Butternut squash and creamy blue cheese risotto
