 Searing (or pan searing) is a technique used in grilling, baking, braising, roasting, sautéing, etc., in which the surface of the food (usually meat: beef, poultry, pork, seafood) is cooked at high temperature until a browned crust forms. Similar techniques, browning and blackening, are typically used to sear all sides of a particular piece of meat, fish, poultry, etc. before finishing it in the oven. To obtain the desired brown or black crust, the meat surface must exceed 150 °C (300 °F), so searing requires the meat surface be free of water, which boils at around 100 °C (212 °F).

Searing is a cooking technique in which we utilize very high heat to create a delicious, caramelized crust on the surface of a food item. This shallow browning method of searing creates what is called the Maillard reaction, frequently spoken about in sous vide forums. This is a chemical reaction between reducing sugars and amino acids that gives caramelized foods their distinctive, delicious flavor. When we sear prior to fully cooking the meat or fish in question, that is a traditional sear. When we use methods like sous vide to cook the protein first and sear to get the benefits afterwards, that is more often known as a reverse-sear.
