Word: hornear

Language: Spanish

Meaning in English:
The verb "hornear" means "to bake" in English.

"Hornear" is a regular verb in Spanish.
It refers to the cooking process of preparing food (usually dough, pastries, bread, or other items) by using an oven.
The word stems from "horno," which means "oven."

Cocer (when referring to cooking by heat in general, although this can also mean boiling or cooking with water, not specifically baking.)
Asar (can mean "roast" or cook with dry heat, usually in an oven or over fire, often for meat or vegetables; it's related but not exactly "bake.")

There isn’t a direct antonym, but in the context of cooking methods:
- Freír (to fry)
- Hervir (to boil)

These describe different cooking methods where food is cooked in oil or water, contrasting with baking in dry heat.
