Two of the three methods listed here skip direcctly to rank F, which means you don't spend waste AP on rN>F which makes it FreeSkillAcquire (along with the obvious fourth method of using a card with the Master Chef Talent), but one of the methods does put you at rank N which means you would have to pay to get it up to rank F.

On a related note, if you have rank novice cooking and use on of the two other methods before manually ranking it up to rank F, will the quests put you at rank F cooking or would it expect you to rank it yourself?
