Cooking is the skill that allows players to cook raw food, making it edible and more valuable. Cooked food plays an important role in the game, as it helps players heal during battle, with higher-level food restoring more hitpoints. This makes cooked food, especially high-level ones, consistently sell for a decent price on the Grand Exchange, making it quite profitable to buy or fish raw food and cook it.
