Methods Of Cooking

Akopọ

Every dish that leaves a kitchen has been changed by heat, and the way that heat is applied decides almost everything about the result: whether the yam is soft or still hard in the middle, whether the chicken is pale or golden, whether the vegetable keeps its colour and vitamins or surrenders them to the pot. Choosing the right method of cooking is the single most practical skill a caterer owns.

In this lesson you will learn how the many methods of cooking sort neatly into three families, moist heat, dry heat and cooking in fat, and then study the four the syllabus names most closely: boiling, roasting, grilling and baking. For each you will meet the process, the temperature and medium, the foods it suits, its effect on colour, texture, nutrients and digestibility, and its advantages and drawbacks, all through Nigerian kitchen examples.

Akọ̀wé Ẹ̀kọ́

Two cooks are handed the same tray of fresh ugu, the same tuber of yam and the same portion of goat meat. One boils everything hard in a flood of water; the other boils the yam gently, stir-fries the ugu for a minute and slow-cooks the tough goat meat until it falls off the bone. The ingredients were identical. The meals are not. The difference is nothing but method of cooking, and it decides taste, colour, tenderness, how much of the vitamins survive and even whether the food is safe to eat. A caterer who understands why each method behaves as it does can cook anything well; one who only follows recipes is lost the moment the recipe runs out.
