It defines each technique - slicing cuts ingredients into thin slices, grating rubs food against a grater to make small thin pieces, and dicing cuts ingredients into cube-like pieces. Cooking techniques include boiling food in water, baking at high temperatures in the oven, and frying in oil to become crispy. Other techniques are peeling to remove thin layers, whisking by stirring fast, sifting to make ingredients fine and lump-free, and beating to rapidly mix and incorporate air.
