Technological innovations on cooking techniques due to scientific improemt

in Steem Cameroon2 years ago

Good evening to all you fellow steemians, hope we all had a great day. Today I will be talking on the innovations of cooking techniques. We know the different methods in which food was being cooked at first is not the same now.

This is so because of an improvement in technology. Technology in my own understanding refers to a change in the manner in which things were done at first to doing things now in a very easy way. Technology has come with machines and many more things.

During the 18th century, the manner in which food was cooked and the pots used in cooking is totally different from now in the 21st century. Back then, people used clay pots to cook and mostly in the firewood kitchen.

These cooking had it's advantages and disadvantages. The advantages that time was because firewood wasn't bought because people went fetching wood only in their farms and so they never waisted their money in buying wood. Also, it was disadvantageous because it took time to go and fetch for fire wood come back light fire before the fire could light it was a problem so if one could have been very hungry that time the person might take time before food is ready.

Coming to the 19th century, other facilities like sawdust pots, charcoal pot came into existence adding to the 3stone fire side. With all these you could see that technology has improved and has also made the cooking rate faster and more easier though some people still faced a lot of difficulties like to get sawdust and others facing difficulties in having charcoal maybe because their firewood could not give them charcoal.

This was advantageous that two or three meals could be cooked at a time especially those who were cooking and selling at the restaurants eased their pain and that is how technology was increasing bit by bit.

Coming now to the 20th century, gas came into existence and stoves. Stoves were being used when kerosene has been put inside to enable it catch fire or light fire aswell.

People could just go and buy their kerosene come and cook inside the house no longer standing outside and there was absence of smoke in this case. Coming now to gas, you had no stress saying that you want to blow fire, ones you have prepared the food you want to cook and their ingredients, you on the gas which was connected to a gas plate before use, you just on your gas which was either automatic or manual gas plate. (Here automatic gas plate meant that you can just on your gas and the flame comes out while in the manual gas you use a match or gas lighter to light the fire there.) Gas was very much preferable because of the fastness and up till now in the 21st century it is the fastest mode of cooking.

Also things like the solar energy were being created which was and is also used to cook food in the sun.

Conclusively, from above we can see that technology is fast changing and improving as days goes by like we see commencing from the 18th, 19th,20th and now the 21st century things are changing as a result of technology. The 20th and 21st century's technology is much more greater than that of the 18 and 19 century. Thanks to technology where people now choose to use firesides or any one of their choice to cook. Not only clay pots exist now we have alliminium and silver pots as well as cemented pots.

Thanks to technology. This is where I will stop and I will appreciate you all as you go through my post. Thanks ones more.
