From Fire to Flavour: The Evolution of Cooking

Cooking, a fundamental human practice, has played an important role in shaping not only our diets but also the very course of human evolution. It's a practice deeply ingrained in our cultural and biological history, with its origins dating back millions of years. The evolution of cooking is a story of innovation, adaptation, and transformation that has contributed to the development of modern human society.
Cooking is as old as civilization itself, and observers have perceived it as both an art and a science. Its history sheds light on the very origins of human settlement, and its variety and traditions reflect unique social, cultural, and environmental influences. The precise origins of cooking are unknown, but, at some point in the distant past, early humans conquered fire and started using it to prepare food.
So,it is safe to say that the story of cooking begins with the mastery of fire. Homo erectus, an early human ancestor, is believed to have been the first to control fire around 1.5 million years ago. The control of fire brought about numerous benefits, such as warmth, protection from predators, and the ability to expand dietary options. While the exact circumstances of the discovery of cooking remain speculative, it's likely that early humans found that cooking food over an open flame made it more palatable, easier to chew, and safer to consume.
