Which term describes cooking using solid fuels?

• A. Solid Fuel Cooking
• B. Liquid Fuel Cooking
• C. Gas Cooking
• D. Electric Cooking

Answer: (A)

Solid Fuel Cooking is the term for cooking that uses solid materials such as wood, charcoal, or coal as the heat source. This distinguishes from other heat sources because it literally describes the form of the fuel being burned to generate heat. In a commercial kitchen, solid fuels produce significant heat and can create more smoke and particulates, so the ventilation and exhaust setup must handle those emissions and include proper ash management and fire safety measures. The other options refer to different energy forms, not solid fuels: liquid fuel cooking would use liquids like kerosene or alcohol; gas cooking uses propane or natural gas; electric cooking relies on electricity.
