It gets cooked *when* it’s heated up. Heat makes things like proteins (in eggs for example) restructure the food and changes the way food particles arrange themselves. The actual cooking is when the food chemically changes. We also heat up certain foods because they taste better or have a better mouthfeel at a different temperature.
