I categorize cooking as an organizational skill - I have some ingredients, and I'm going to arrange them in a way that suits me. The algorithms I engage aren't that different from the ones that come into play when I organize the junk on my desk.
A task many people also find boring and painful, sadly.
I see it as a process. The few things I can cook and cook regularly I tend to optimize to their absolute minimum effort needed.
