When cooking, why do we add water?
For example, we are instructed to add water to the pan with stir frys sometimes, like when the stir fry has veges or chicken...
Does the water get absorbed into the food to replace the water that is lost from the food when it is cooked?
Thank you!
Also, I read the ingredients in a satay sauce: peanut butter, sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce, and boiling water...What is the soy sauce used for?
