+# Temperature Guide for Cooking Techniques
+
+## Common Cooking Techniques and Approximate Settings
+
+| Technique | Temperature Setting | Uses and Tips |
+|-----------|---------------------|---------------|
+| Sautéing | Medium to Medium-High (6-8) | • Quick cooking of vegetables, browning meats<br>• Adjust based on ingredient and desired browning |
+| Simmering | Low to Medium-Low (2-4) | • For soups, stews, sauces<br>• Gentle bubbling, not a rolling boil |
+| Boiling | High (9-10) | • For pasta, blanching vegetables<br>• Reduce to medium-high once boiling achieved |
+| Searing | High (9-10) | • For getting a crust on meats<br>• Use briefly, then reduce heat |
+| Pan-frying | Medium to Medium-High (6-8) | • For cooking meats, fish, pancakes<br>• Adjust based on food thickness and desired doneness |
+| Slow Cooking | Low (1-2) | • For long-cooking stews, braises<br>• Maintain barely visible simmer |
+| Melting (chocolate, butter) | Low (1-3) | • To prevent burning or separation |
+| Reducing Liquids | Medium to Medium-High (6-8) | • For concentrating sauces or soups |
+
+**Note:** These are approximate settings. Always monitor your cooking and adjust as needed. Cookware material and thickness can affect heat distribution.
+
