Karina’s Anti-contamination Cooking Tips!
Some times, sharing is caring. When it comes to germs, however, sharing isn’t caring and there are many things you can do in order to keep your food safe. A select few things you can do, are as follows:
- Wash hands, benches, chopping boards, knives, utensils etc often, in order to prevent contamination.
- Avoid cross-contamination. Use a chopping board for chopping vegetables and a separate chopping board for chopping meat, if you need to prepare a combined vegetable and meat based dish. Alternatively, you can use one chopping board, however, chop your veggies first, then clean the chopping board very well. After the board is clean again, use this board to chop your meat, then clean your board again.
- Clean your chopping knife before and after chopping your vegetables and clean your chopping knife before and after chopping your meat.
Have fun and be safe in the kitchen!
