phrase request - What do you call or how do you describe this in English? overcooking the food? What do you call the black stuff?


enter image description here


In Persian, we say that (literal translation) the food has taken the bottom :D


What do you say when you want to say that the food in the pot was overcooked and something like the picture above happened to the pot?


Also, is there any specific term for those black stuff on the bottom of the pot or pan?



Answer




The phrase you are looking for is



burned-on food



This can happen when the moisture in the food has disappeared and the food is left to continue to cook, it can also happen if what's being cooked is very dense and heavy with the heat level used being too high.
