causes the food to burn.

B)

leeches the flavor from the food.

C)

dries out the food.

D)

lowers the cooking temperature.

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

D) lowers the cooking temperature.

When you add liquid during steaming, it can lower the overall temperature of the steam, which may affect the cooking process. However, it's worth noting that in most steaming methods, the aim is to maintain the steam's heat to cook food effectively, so adding too much liquid could potentially impact cooking time and temperature.
