Common types of cooking

The most common types of cooking are dry heat, moist heat, and combination cooking. Dry heat cooking is cooking with an oven. Where whatever you're cooking is exposed to a high source of heat from below or above. This is what gives food it's brown color after it's done cooking. Moist heat cooking is when you boil, steam, poach, and simmer what ever you're cooking. It is a lot less intense then dry heat cooking. Combination cooking combines dry heat and moist heat cooking. Combination is often used when you make pot-roast, stew, or braising.
