About
The character 厨 is the simplified form of 廚, functioning as a phono-semantic compound meaning "kitchen" or a place for cooking. In its traditional form, the semantic radical 广 (a shelter or building) combines with the phonetic component 尌, which itself contains 壴 and 寸. The simplified version replaces 广 with 厂 (a cliff or open shed) and streamlines the phonetic element to 豆, which also subtly evokes vessels or food containers. Historically, its meaning expanded from the physical cooking space to include the profession of cooking, leading to terms for chefs or cooks, and it occasionally refers to wooden cabinets or cupboards used for storing food and utensils.
