Keeping Clean in the Kitchen
Many home cooks are able to produce scrumptious food in the kitchen but are unaware of proper sanitation practices. It doesn’t matter how good your food tastes if you leave your dinner guests with a case of salmonella poisoning. One of the main ways that diseases get spread in the kitchen is through cross-contamination.
It is always a good idea to keep two cutting boards: one for meat and poultry, and one for produce. A wood cutting board is perfect for produce and won’t damage the blade of your knife. Use a plastic board for your meat and poultry, as it won’t absorb as much liquid and can easily be disinfected.
Is There a Cutting Board In The House
Every kitchen around America has to have a cutting board as one of their main kitchen tools. Before you start cooking your meat, vegetables or fruit, you first have to prepare them by either slicing, chopping or cutting them up. In order to do this, you have to have a cutting board, whether it’s wood, plastic, glass or some other type of cutting board.
Just remember that you should not use the same cutting board to prepare your raw meat, cooked meat, vegetables and any other food due to the bacteria that collects in the groves of the cutting board. Make sure that you sanitize your cutting boards accordingly.
