Cooking

Methods
Baking

• This involves applying a dry convection heat to your


food in an enclosed environment.
• The dry heat involved in the baking process makes the
outside of the food go brown, and keeps the moisture
locked in.
• Baking is regularly used for cooking pastries, bread
and desserts
Frying
This means cooking your food in fat – there are several
variations of frying:
• Deep-frying- where the food is completely immersed in hot
oil
• Stir-frying- where you fry the food very quickly on a high
heat in a oiled pan
• Pan-frying- where food is cooked in a frying pan with oil;
and
• Sauteing- where the food is browned on one side and then
the other with a small quantity of fat or oil.

Roasting

• Roasting is basically a high heat form of baking, where


your food gets drier and browner on the outside by
initial exposure to a temperature of over 500F.
• This prevents most of the moisture being cooked out
of the food.
• The temperature is then lowered to between 425 and
450F to cook through the meat or vegetables.
Grilling

• This is a fast, dry and very hot way of cooking, where


the food is placed under an intense radiant heat.
• You can use various sources of heat for grilling: wood
burning, coals, gas flame, or electric heating.
• Before grilling, food can be marinaded or seasoned.
• A similar method to grilling is broiling, where the heat
source originates from the top instead of the bottom.
