There are various types of food you can cook in RuneScape. By eating food, you regain lost hit points (HP). The amount depends on the type of food you eat. As you train your cooking, you will be able to cook more varieties of food, and you will also burn less. To cook food you can use ranges which can be found throughout Runescape. You can also make fires, on which you can cook most types of food.

Gnome Cooking and Bartending*
You can learn how to make gnome foods by visiting the second floor of the Grand Tree and speaking to Aluft Gianne or Blurberry. Making gnome dishes earns 30 xp on your own, or an additional bonus of 60 xp (for a total of 90 xp) if you make them as tasked by Aluft Gianne. Making gnome cocktails earns 60 xp.

Cooking Notes:
Cakes give 180 experience each, which is the best experience you can get per dish, prior to level 60 when you can cook Karambwan for 190 experience per dish. However, these require fishing them up, which takes time and some luck, as you'll get different kinds of fish in the process. Cakes, however, use ingredients which are both free, and easy to get ahold of, quickly. Now, you need level 40 cooking to do cakes, which is also high enough to enter the cooking guild, just make sure you have a chef's hat. I would recommend getting 14 Cake Tins, Buckets, and Pots stored in the bank as well. First collect eggs, usually in groups of 28. Take 1 or 2 loads to the bank before starting. This is the only ingredient I need to stock up on ahead of time. I then grab 14 buckets, and keep my other 14 inventory spots open, and head for the farm south of Varrock. I usually find the path between the Champions Guild and the field of wheat to be the shortest route. After milking 14 buckets of milk from one or two cows go back to the bank in Varrock, stopping at the field to grab 14 bushels of wheat. At the bank, I deposit the buckets and grab 14 pots. Takethe 14 bushels of wheat and 14 pots and go to the cooking guild. Go to the top floor, and grind all bushels of wheat in the hopper, then head downstairs and fill the pots with flour. Hhead back to the bank, and proceed to grab equal amounts of eggs, flour, milk, and cake tins from the bank. Then bank the pots and buckets, and take only the 14 full cake tins to the range in Juliet's house, and use each with the range. This takes a bit time, but since the only thing you have to wait for spawning is the eggs, and all of the ingredients are free, for 180 experience per dish I think the effort is well worth it.
