Cooking, cookery, or culinary arts is the art, science and craft of
using heat to improve the palatability, digestibility, nutrition, or
safety of food. Cooking techniques and ingredients vary widely, from
grilling food over an open fire to using electric stoves, to baking in
various types of ovens, reflecting local conditions. Types of cooking
also depend on the skill levels and training of the cooks. Cooking is
done both by people in their own dwellings and by professional cooks
and chefs in restaurants and other food establishments.
