What is another word for browned?
Pronunciation: [bɹˈa͡ʊnd] (IPA) 
When it comes to describing the color or state of food that has been cooked, the term "browned" can be pretty limiting. Fortunately, there are plenty of other words you can use to describe the same process. For instance, you could say that the food was caramelized, toasted, seared, roasted, or charred. These terms convey slightly different nuances of flavor and technique, but they all suggest that the food was cooked until it turned a deep, rich color. If you want to get even more specific, you could describe the food as having a crispy or crunchy texture, depending on how it was cooked.
