释义
To cook food for too long, so that it becomes dry, hard, or loses its best taste and texture.
用法与细微差别
Usually used for food that becomes worse when cooked too long, like vegetables, meat, or pasta. Common mistake: confusing 'overcook' (too much cooking) with 'burn' (cooking until blackened). 'Overcooked' is the adjective form.
