Treat with heat (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sear

'treat with heat' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for sear that I've seen before include "Burn briefly" , "Make very hot and dry" , "Cook (quickly at great heat)" , "Withered" , "Dried up, parched" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
