Burn with hot liquid (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scald

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">burn with hot liquid</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for scald that I've seen before include "Burn with hot liquid" , "Injure with hot liquid" , "Burn with water" , "Injure with steam" , "Hurt with hot water" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent and The Times.
