Philip Harben introduces a series of twelve lessons on the basic principles of cooking.
The different degrees of heat or cold used in cooking - the different temperatures, in fact - produce different effects on food. The principal temperatures dealt with in this lesson are: 32°F (freezing), 150°F (the critical temperature, at which cooking proper starts), 180°F (simmering), 212°F (boiling), and 250°F (pressure-cooking). Before a temperature can affect a food there must be a cooking medium - a means whereby the heat is conveyed to the food. It is a chain of causes and effects: fuel (coal, electricity, gas, oil) is by means of an appliance (cooker) converted into heat and conveyed to a utensil (pan) which, through the necessary cooking medium, transfers it to the food. The principal media discussed in this lesson are water and steam.
