Cooking is a process of processing food into food so it can be consumed, in the process of cooking is required means to heat the foodstuff ie fire, and the fire is obtained from a burning process, the combustion itself is manual and there is an automatic, one of which a manual tool that is a furnace with firewood as the main ingredient in combustion. In today's sophisticated times it's rare to find people still using stoves and firewood for cooking, except perhaps in rural areas that still provide plenty of wood for fuel,
The definition of the furnace itself is a device designed as a combustion chamber so that the fuel can be used to heat something, simply a furnace is usually made of stone or brick arrangement so that the heat can accumulate and not harm the user, in the course of the furnace and then made more modern by using clay molded in various forms and then burned to be more practical in use and can be moved without damaging the arrangement. The fuel commonly used to heat something from this stove is firewood, whether it is firewood, the rest of the building or the former that is not used anymore or firewood which is specifically for burning, for example from tree branches, stem of coconut leaves or felled trees then cut into pieces in certain sizes. To get firewood people usually look for themselves if there are many trees in the vicinity, or buy in the market (usually in the form of bonds in certain amounts).
Seen from the point of view of the layman we can see and imagine that cooking with stoves and firewood this process longer than using a stove, let alone electricity, it is because the fire used for cooking must be made first, and it is not something which is easy to do, it can be said that this initial process is the determinant to the next process, some use kerosene as auxiliaries to burn faster, but it can affect the taste of the food, and some others use other more natural assistance, for example by utilizing combustible materials, for example paper, dry leaves or coconut fibers. If this initial process has been traversed then the next process is to keep the fire to stay burning during the cooking process, know it, the furnace does not have automatic buttons such as gas stoves or shrinking tools such as kerosene stoves. And it must be done during the cooking process to complete, a long process that requires patience, but it's all of course there are benefits, if you want to taste good must first
