[CnD] the color in cooking - Re: Golden brown.

You are supposed to bake scallops until they are opaque.  Um, OK?  How would 
I know?  They always look the same to me.  I'm extremely color blind. 
(ornery grin).  Actually, this brings up a thought:  When sighted people who 
are color blind cook, how do they know these things?  I'll bet the recipe 
writers never give that a thought.

Hello,
How about the ones that say cook meat until no pink remains? Good thing 
our coping skills are better than whoever writes the books.

Hello:

In some of the recipes, the phrase: until golden brown is used.

How does a totally blind person, or persons know what that is.

Thanks.

You don't.  I depend a lot on timing.  If the recipe says 20 minutes per pound, 
that's how long I cook it ... at the suggested temp.  Things like starting 
temperature, size of what you're cooking have to be the same.  If a chicken is 
cooked that way, it will be golden brown when it's done.

I know that when grilling a sirloin steak that is about an inch thick on my 
electric grill, I turn it over after about 5 minutes and grill the other 
side for about 4 more minutes.  This leaves it just beyond the stage of 
moo, which is how I like them  I always had to grill Wee1's steak for a 
few more minutes per side.

I can usually tell by touching what I am cooking. It all comes with experience.
