Definition: To prepare (food) for eating by heating it, often by combining it with other ingredients.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look,
At “cooking,” a word that’s quite a cook!
The dictionary gives us a helpful clue,
“To prepare food for eating, it's true!”
But let’s break it down in a way that’s neat,
With heat and ingredients, a delicious treat.
Think of baking bread, a golden brown delight,
Or stirring sauces, shining ever bright!
It’s combining things – flour, salt, and spice,
Adding flavors, oh so very nice!
We're heating them up, that's the key you see,
Transforming raw food for you and me.
So cooking is more than just a simple task,
It’s crafting meals with love, don't you ask?
Does anyone have any questions to share?
