Hi, I love minecraft, but in the last update (1.16.0.57 beta and 1.16.0.58 Beta) there is a huge deficit. We cannot cook gold. Especially after the update of nether, the gold gained much more value in the game because gold is needed for the netherite nugget. I hope this problem will disappear in the next update. (sorry if there is an error in my writing.)

Having the same issue gold will not smelt at all! Tried in a furnace and a blast furnace and neither work. The only way to get gold ore is to find it in chests or find a bunch of gold ore.
