unseared
Lacking browning heat
Unseared describes something not marked or damaged by burning or intense heat.
In cooking, unseared meat hasn't been browned at high temperature: The unseared side of the steak was still pale.
Figuratively, an unseared conscience remains sensitive and uncalloused—not hardened by repeated wrongdoing.
