European ovens and grilling[edit source]

I propose to (eventually) change this article to reflect the fact that most European ovens include a grill. Also, grilling is usually considered a healthy option because fat released from the cooking food cannot be reabsorbed. This tends to contradict the article's assertion that it is used to retain the juices of meat. LittlePete 11:27, 27 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Is there evidence for the searing claim[edit source]

Given that this post contradicts the long standing advice from many cooks that one should sear a steak at high temperature to retain the juices first not last, is there any reference to back up this interesting claim to do the opposite?
