RuneScape/Skills/Cooking

In RuneScape food is essential for combat and trade. Foods provide healing (hitpoints/life). The most nurishing foods reqire cooking, baking, fermenting, and\or brewing. As with all skills the more you practice the better you will get, but in cooking at lower levels you may burn food. Burning makes it in inaccessible to eat or sell. As your level in creases you will burn less and less food.

Meat

 * Raw Fish or Meat
 * Campfire(Tinder Box and Wood) or Stove

Bread
(The Grain and Pot can be replaced with Flour)
 * Grain
 * Pot
 * Bucket or Jug
 * Stove

Pies
Pies can be made by using flour and eggs in a Pie Dish, and then adding another ingredient to finish the pie. (Eg: cooking apples for apple pies, meat for meat pies)

Pies are all 2 bite foods, meaning they must be eaten in 2 bites. When you eat, you stop whatever you are doing at the moment (eg. if you are fighting, you will stop fighting for a few seconds to eat). Therefore, pies uses 2 times the time it takes for a player to eat another food of equal healing properties. Each bite heals half the total health. Most players find pies time consuming to make, and also inferieor in terms of healing compared to fish. Pies are generally good for quests, where your hp (health) might be reduced slowly, but not good for wilderness battles, where other player(s) can hit over 30 damage in 1 blow, while the best pie can only heal 6 hp in one bite.
