Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a cooking apparatus for controlling a process for cooking food. The method comprises the steps of: detecting an initial temperature of the food; evaluating weighting factors of more than one temperature ranges according to the initial temperature, the more than one temperature ranges and preset cooking parameters of each of the more than one temperature ranges being predetermined; and controlling the cooking process based on the evaluated weighting factors and the preset cooking parameters. With this configuration, the cooking setting (temperature, time etc) can thus be determined based on the detected temperature ranges as well as the eliminated temperature ranges, so that possible detection inaccuracy can be eliminated to a large extent.
