- Cooking is a heat treatment of food to make
- it more palatable, digestible, and safe.
- It breaks down connective tissue in meat,
- making it tender, and softens the cellulose
- in plant tissue. Some nutrients may be lost
- in the process, but this does not affect the
- overall nutritional value of a balanced diet.
- Cookery has been around since prehistoric
- times.
