Yes, that is how I heard it. I'm sure I've seen videos on YouTube showing the technique. I vaguely remember, I think, Gordon Ramsay demonstrating it, but that may be a false memory.
(I tried to take some pictures to illustrate, but realised I would need three hands, so gave up on that.)
Whatever, I still don't think much of it as an idea. Temperature is the surest guide.
