Survival maybe covers it, but what if you want to make a “chef” character?

Is there a cooking skill?

Survival covers "wilderness cooking". Modern day "being an adult" cooking would be Common Knowledge (hence, a Clueless person is someone who can burn water).
For a professional chef, you might want to look at Performance. Maybe a specialization of the skill. Opens the door for Fame/Famous earning you money as a highly desirable celebrity chef.

Make it an edge that adds to common knowledge.

Cooking (Professional), requirements Common kn d6: Your know more recipes than Ina Garten has cook books. Anytime you are cooking you can always make a free reroll on your common knowledge skill roll. Additionally you can substitute common kn for performance when trying to earn money.
Just a thought off my head. If it is too much for one edge split it up. Cooking (Free Reroll), Chef ( substitute common kn for perform to earn money).Last edited by tbone9581; 08-17-2019, 05:18 PM.

I'd actually change the base skill used to Performance. Chef-ing is as much about management and presentation as tasty victuals.

Oh, no! Not another "free reroll" Edge. Have people lost all imagination?
I jest... but only slightly.
Here's one:
Gourmet
Requirements: Novice, Performance (cooking) d8 <or whatever skill you want to use>
Your food is not only good, but highly nutritious. Whenever someone eats a meal prepared by you they remove one Fatigue level (if they have one) and add +2 to their next Natural Healing roll.
The meal must be top-end, requiring adequate ingredients and at least one hour to prepare.
