"Score" in cooking refers to making light cuts in parallel lines on the surface of the meat, pastry, etc., which you are preparing. (The cut depth should be no more than 1/16".) A second set of light cuts in parallel lines is made perpendicular to the first set, creating a diamond pattern. The distance between the cuts - scores - may be gauged to the size of the food being prepared.
