Carbohydrates: caramelisation
Caramelisation occurs by heating sugars at a high temperature to remove water. This produces a brown colour and a nutty flavour.
Carbohydrates: dextrinization
Dextrinization is the process involved when starchy foods go brown by dry heat (without water).
Carbohydrates: gelatinisation
Gelatinisation: thickening a liquid (sauce) by heating starch.
