Basic Concept of Cookery

Introduction to Cookery

Cookery is defined as a “chemical process” mixing of ingredients; the application and

withdrawal of heat to raw ingredients to make it more easily digestible, palatable and safe for
human consumption. Cookery is considered to be both an art and science. The art of cooking is
ancient. The first cook was a primitive man, who had put a chunk of meat close to the fire, which
he had lit to warm himself. He discovered that the meat heated in this way was not only tasty but
it was also much easier to masticate. From this moment, in unrecorded past, cooking has evolved
to reach the present level of sophistication.

Humankind in the beginning ate to survive. Now also we still eat to survive, however
efforts have been made to make the food more enjoyable like cooking meats and vegetables in
different ways to make them more easily eaten, digestible and to make them more attractive,
palatable and to have wider choice. This is the art associated with the preparation of food.
However, it is not solely the artful manipulation and combination of food which results in good
tasting products. Nutritional aspects, the effects of combining various foodstuffs and the use of
modern technology can be considered the science of cooking. The “how of cooking” can be
considered to be the art and the “why of cooking” could be the science. Balancing the art and
science must be the goal of every professional chef.

Aims and objectives of cooking food

1. Cooking partly sterilizes food

Above 40°C (140°F) The growth of bacteria falls off rapidly and in general it ceases above
45°C (113°F). Non-sporing bacteria are killed at temperatures above 60°C (140°F) for
varying periods of time. For example, to make milk safe for consumption, it is pasteurized at
63°C (145°F) for 30 minutes or at 72°C (161F°) fir 15 seconds. Boiling kills living cells with
the exception of spores, within a few seconds. Spore bearing bacteria take about 4 to 5 hours
of boiling to be destroyed (Higher the temperature shorter the time required to destroy them).
2. Cooking helps to make the food more digestible
Complex foods are often split into simpler substances during cooking. This helps the body to
absorb and utilize the food more readily than in the raw form.
3. Cooking increases the palatability of various dishes.
4. Cooking makes the food more attractive in appearance, and hence more appetizing.
5. Cooking introduces variety
Many different types of dishes can be prepared using the same ingredient.
6. Cooking helps to provide a balanced meal
Different ingredients of different nutritive values combined together in one dish makes it
easier to provide a balanced meal (e.g. a combination of cereals and pulses together gives a
complete balanced meal.)

 Relevance of the Course and Career Opportunities

In Cookery moving forward, varied and relevant activities and opportunities are provided to
demonstrate a student’s understanding of concepts and core competencies as prescribed in TESDA
Training Regulation in Cookery and provides quality foods and services to target clients. This will also be
a venue for teachers to assess students and identify aspects of business that they need to strengthen and
safeguard before they become a part of the workforce. Today in the world of work, the number of
available jobs is scarce and the Department of Education is revitalizing its resources to lead the young
minds and to prepare them skillfully as future Chef.
It is in honing the skills that learners can assure to have an edge of surviving the daily needs of
oneself and of others. It seeks to provide the learners with the knowledge, attitude, values and skills in the
field of Cookery.

Traditional Careers in Food

When most people think about beginning a career in food, they automatically come up with the more
traditional occupations. These include positions like chef, baker, and restaurant manager. Below we have
covered some of the common positions so that you can get an idea of the opportunities that these kinds of
jobs can offer.
1. Chef

It is an exciting time to become a chef. Some of the hottest trends in food include a shift toward eating
ingredients that are grown locally or sustainably, prepared more naturally, and include ethnic spices and
flavors. Fresh and house-made ingredients are also appealing to today's consumers, as well as street food
and food trucks.
There are many opportunities to pursue your creative culinary passion, regardless of whatever your
specific interests may be. Whether you want to run a kitchen in a local boutique restaurant or become a
top chef for a major franchise, one of your best bets for beginning your career is to obtain a culinary arts
education. It can give you a solid foundation from which you can start building your career as a chef.

 Average salary—$52,160
 Top-end salary—$81,150 or more
 Projected job growth and yearly openings—11 percent, 20,700

2. Baker or Pastry Artist

If you love the idea of sharing delicious breads or delectable desserts with the masses, then becoming a
baker or pastry artist could be an ideal choice for you. There is a real know-how and science behind
crafting perfectly baked goods. You may be wise to begin mastering your skills in a baking or pastry arts
program. It can give you the footing needed to grab attention in the baking world.
With carefully fine-tuned skills, you could be ready to do just about anything, whether you want to set up
your own specialty pastry shop, prepare artisanal breads for local grocers and markets, or create a variety
of mouthwatering treats in a large commercial bakery.

5|PARCO, ASA, LPT| TLE 7

  Average salary—$28,660
 Top-end salary—$40,350 or more
 Projected job growth and yearly openings—6 percent, 28,100

3. Restaurant Manager

You could embark on a culinary career that focuses on operations. With jobs like restaurant, kitchen, or
catering manager, a food service management position is a great option for individuals who possess both
a strong business sense and a love for culinary arts. And there are a number of restaurant management
schools that can help aspiring professionals like you enter the industry.
Depending on the size of establishment you work for, you could secure a management position that
focuses on the front of house, back of house, or both. Front-house managers focus on the serving and
bartending staff. They ensure that customer service standards are being met and that food and drinks are
coming out as expected. Back-house managers, on the other hand, are responsible for the kitchen and
food preparation staff. They oversee the kitchen, check on portion quality and size, and make sure that
health and safety standards are upheld.
Most management positions will also require you to be involved in areas like staffing and scheduling.
You could be responsible for interviewing, hiring, training, and ensuring that each shift is staffed
adequately. You could also oversee areas like ordering, inventory management, and costing. It really
depends on the type of business and the scope of your role.

 Average salary—$58,960
 Top-end salary—$92,410 or more
 Projected job growth and yearly openings—11 percent, 46,900

4. Hospitality Manager

This position is sometimes similar to that of a food service manager except that it includes the addition of
overseeing accommodations. Hospitality managers, also known as lodging managers, typically oversee
entire facilities that include both accommodations and food services, like hotels and resorts. They tend to
focus on overall guest experiences and ensure that the business is organized and profitable. Hospitality
managers can be involved in many areas of financial, human resources, and operations management.
If you like the sound of this interesting career path, then you may want to consider attending a hospitality
management school. You could find a program that prepares you to work for all types and sizes of
lodging establishments, from small inns to large corporate resorts.

 Average salary—$62,270
 Top-end salary—$102,410 or more
 Projected yearly openings—5,500

Unique Careers in Food

When you research unique career possibilities in the food industry, you can come up with hundreds of
ideas. There are multiple niche areas popping up in food service and production. Take a look at a few of
these exciting possibilities below to see if any of them appeal to you.
5. Bed & Breakfast Owner

Many bed and breakfast (B&B) owners would tell you that their work is a labor of love. You need to
enjoy meeting and engaging with people of all backgrounds, providing memorable hospitality in your
home, and serving your guests delicious food. And there are good opportunities in the B&B industry. In
fact, revenue for the bed and breakfast industry grew at a yearly rate of 4.4 percent from 2014 to 2019.
6|PARCO, ASA, LPT| TLE 7
A growing number of travelers are seeking the personalized experiences that B&Bs can offer over larger
resorts and hotels. Along with free breakfasts, B&Bs often include free parking, Wi-Fi connections, and
even evening wine and appetizer services. Guests may also benefit from personalized trip planning and
transportation services, all of which are typically included in the price of their stay.
Because bed and breakfasts are privately owned businesses, salary data is not available. But if you are
running a small four-room B&B that operates on an average of 50-percent capacity (which is realistic for
a B&B over the course of a year), you can expect to earn approximately $62,000 per year. That is based
on a nightly rate of $85 and does not take into account your operational costs. Of course, the amount that
you earn is based on a number of factors including the area in which you are based, how much you charge
a night, if you provide add-on services, and your occupancy rate (which typically improves over time as
your business becomes more known).
Individuals interested in opening a bed and breakfast can benefit from business management training. It
can provide you with a solid understanding of key business principles from accounting to marketing,
which could help you build a successful business a little faster. Some programs even include a culinary
component.
6. Cookbook Author

Whether as an avid home cook or a culinary professional, becoming a cookbook author could be the food
career that you are after. A good first step is to develop a theme for your cookbook. Then you would
likely want to contact potential publishers to get an idea of their interest. Another option is to look into
crowdfunding platforms like Kickstarter that can enable you to obtain funding without the backing of a
publisher.
Once you have come up with a viable idea and a means to get it to the market, you can work on perfecting
and compiling your best tried-and-true recipes and accompanying them with beautiful photos. You will
want to write a book that is both on-trend with consumers and has a look that grabs their attention.
And it is worth noting that many cookbook authors garner attention by food blogging as a supplement to
their publications. A food blog can be a great way to gain followers and create publicity for your book
before it has hit the shelves. You may even want to check out some writing schools that could help you
acquire authoring skills that can enhance the content of your blogs or books.

 Average salary—$73,090
 Top-end salary—$121,670 or more

7. Food Entrepreneur

The food industry has led to all kinds of niche markets. As a result, many people have become food
entrepreneurs. These people have usually built successful businesses based on one or two specialty
products that they have developed in their own kitchens. And with the explosion of the Internet, food
entrepreneurs are able to reach markets that were previously hard to access.
If you make a to-die-for BBQ sauce, mouthwatering salsa, or other prepared food that could be
commercially successful, then you may want to become a food entrepreneur. With solid business skills,
(which you could acquire at an entrepreneur school) and one or more quality products, you could be on
your way to creating a successful business. You'll need to become familiar with areas related to food
labeling, permitting, regulations, and health and safety. And you'll also want to enhance your sales efforts
by making contacts with food distributors and connecting with local retailers that could sell your
products.
Because entrepreneurs are self-employed, salary and job outlook data is not available. Your earnings and
potential growth of your business rests upon your product mix, pricing, and promotions. If you are
offering a product that appeals to a large market segment, and you work hard to establish your business,
then you could make a good living while being able to pursue your passion.
8. Professional Food Forager

A food forager is most known as a person who goes into the forest and other natural settings to find foods
that are grown in the wild. However, a new career field is emerging for professional food foragers who
search through farmers' markets and other local businesses in order to source food for restaurants.
Chefs do not typically have the time to source ingredients like locally grown produce or artisanal
products, so they hire professional food foragers to do it for them. Foragers source the ingredients and
sometimes even educate the chefs and restaurant staff as to the origin of the items.
Since this is a relatively new field, earning and job growth data is not readily available. However, eco-
friendly food and locally sourced ingredients are hot trends in the food industry. So as more restaurants
tap into this trend, it's likely that professional food foraging services will become more in-demand.

9. Research Chef

Most individuals working in this field are professionally trained chefs who also possess backgrounds in
food science. Research chefs come up with new foods and dishes for food-manufacturing companies,
restaurants, and other food-based businesses. They often have their hands in areas related to research,
product development, marketing, and sales. Many research chefs report that their days offer a lot of
variety. They can be found doing anything from conducting research on the newest food trends and
attending industry trade shows to developing ingredients or dishes in kitchens and engaging with
customers and focus groups.
Careers in the food industry of this nature can take several years to achieve. You may want to consider
obtaining culinary arts training to get started. Then, while you gain experience in a professional kitchen,
you can take food science courses that could support your goal of becoming a research chef.

 Average salary—$55,540
 Top-end salary—$89,720 or more

10. Restaurant Publicist

This is a great career option if you have a love of food and excel in communicating and building
relationships with all types of people. As a restaurant publicist, you are responsible for developing a good
brand image for a restaurant, making its presence known, and "putting out fires" in the event of any
negative attention. With more than one million restaurants operating in the U.S., the work of a restaurant
publicist is becoming increasingly important.
You have to understand your clients' customers and the best platforms to reach them. Some restaurants
may have a client base that is best targeted through traditional mediums like print and radio ads, whereas
other restaurants may need more of a focus on online mediums. You also have to possess a good
understanding of restaurant operations since you may need to assist with training staff, setting service
standards, and even designing and writing menus. These aspects all contribute to a restaurant's image.
Restaurant publicists usually work for a public relations firm rather than one individual restaurant.
However, some of the larger restaurant chains may employ in-house publicists. And although there is not
just one clear educational path that leads to this career, training in communication studies or public
relations can be a great first step.

 Average salary—$49,540
 Top-end salary—$77,800 or more
 Projected job growth—11.5 percent

Manufacturing & Food Science Careers

8|PARCO, ASA, LPT| TLE 7

When looking at your options within the food industry, careers in manufacturing and processing may be
of interest to you. It is an intriguing time to work in the sector. Important shifts are taking place in food
manufacturing as consumers are moving toward healthier eating and are more often seeking foods that
possess organic and non-GMO (i.e., not genetically modified) ingredients. And many potential food-
labeling laws, like ones that would require GMO foods to be labeled, are currently making their way
through Congress.
Another growing concern is nutritional quality. More and more consumers want products with less sugar,
preservatives, and processed ingredients. What all of this means is that interesting changes are taking
place in the food-manufacturing industry, and they may result in reshaping the roles of workers—from
food scientists to sales reps.
The food-manufacturing sector requires professionals from all backgrounds, including business,
information technology, and the skilled trades. While these professions tend to be higher-paying, it isn't
expected that they'll have a lot of job growth within the food-manufacturing sector. However, it is
expected that careers in food science, as well as other jobs that are related to the actual manufacturing
processes, will grow. Some of these occupations are detailed below.
11. Agricultural or Food Science Technician

This occupation can involve working in all aspects of agricultural processing. Food science technicians
often focus on areas like health and safety, process and technology improvements, distribution,
preservation, and quality control. They may also study crops and plants in order to improve yields and
enhance certain attributes of the plants. Most positions require a bachelor's degree in food science or a
related field.

 Average salary—$44,170
 Top-end salary—$64,020 or more
 Projected job growth and yearly openings—6 percent, 3,800

12. Food Scientist or Technologist

A food scientist is typically involved in researching, developing, and improving food products and
manufacturing processes. Most scientists tend to specialize in a specific area such as processing, quality
assurance, or research. Depending on your specialty, you could be responsible for determining the
nutritional content of products, researching new ingredients, or enforcing government food regulations.
Like food science technicians, food scientist jobs usually require at least a bachelor's degree in a related
discipline.

 Average salary—$72,570
 Top-end salary—$118,630 or more
 Projected job growth and yearly openings—5 percent, 1,800

13. Food Batchmakers

This is one of many different entry-level positions found in food-manufacturing facilities. Food
batchmakers follow recipes in order to cook large batches of food. You could be responsible for
measuring ingredients, monitoring and operating a variety of equipment, adjusting cooking temperatures,
conducting quality-control tests, and cleaning and sterilizing equipment. Although most training takes
place on the job, you could opt for an education in an area that interests you, like electrical or mechanical
engineering. That way, you have more opportunities to progress your career within the food-
manufacturing sector.

 Average salary—$32,090
 Top-end salary—$47,940 or more
 Projected yearly openings—24,800
