It is the art of cooking food in high heat with oil, to achieve a brown color with a characteristic tingling aroma and flavor. It is in other words, roasting food in a heavy cooking pot like the French oven which is made of cast iron. Braising is an easy way of cooking large food pieces. Anybody can do it and get it right.
