FOOD SAFETY

There are basic rules to follow when handling food.

They are COOK, SEPARATE, CLEAN, and CHILL.

COOK

It’s crucial to cook food to a safe internal temperature to destroy bacteria that is present. The safety of hamburgers and other foods made with ground meat has been receiving a lot of attention lately, and with good reason. When meat is ground, the bacteria present on the surface is mixed throughout the ground mixture. If this ground meat is not cooked to at least 160 o F to 165 o F (71 C to 74 be destroyed and there’s a good chance you will get sick. o C), bacteria will not

Solid pieces of meat like steaks and chops don’t have dangerous bacteria like E. coli on the inside, so they can be served more rare. Still, any beef cut should be cooked to an internal temperature of at least 145 temperature for poultry is 180

160 F (71 prepared meringue powder.

F (63 o C) (medium rare). The safe

C) and solid cuts of pork should be cooked to

C). Eggs should be thoroughly cooked too. If you are making a meringue or other recipe that uses uncooked eggs, buy specially pasteurized eggs or use

SEPARATE

Foods that will be eaten uncooked and foods that will be cooked before eating MUST

ALWAYS be separated. Cross-contamination occurs when raw meats or eggs come in contact with foods that will be eaten uncooked. This is a major source of food poisoning. Always double-wrap raw meats and place them on the lowest shelf in the refrigerator so there is no way juices can drip onto fresh produce. Then use the raw meats within 1-2 days of purchase, or freeze for longer storage. Defrost frozen meats in the refrigerator, not on the counter.

When grilling or cooking raw meats or fish, make sure to place the cooked meat on a clean platter. Don’t use the same platter you used to carry the food out to the grill.

Wash the utensils used in grilling after the food is turned for the last time on the grill, as well as spatulas and spoons used for stir-frying or turning meat as it cooks.

Make sure to wash your hands after handling raw meats or raw eggs. Washing hands with soap and water, or using a pre-moistened antibacterial towelette is absolutely necessary after you have touched raw meat or raw eggs. Not washing hands and surfaces while cooking is a major cause of cross-contamination.

CLEAN

Wash your hands and work surfaces frequently when you are cooking. Washing with soap and warm water for at least 15 seconds, then dry with a paper towel.

CHILL

Chilling food is very important. The danger zone where bacteria multiply is between

40 o F and 140 F (4 C and 6 your freezer should be 0 o

C). Your refrigerator should be set to 40

F (-17 o F (4 o C) or below;

C) or below. Simple rule: serve hot foods hot, cold foods cold. Use chafing dishes or hot plates to keep food hot while serving. Use ice water baths to keep cold foods cold. Never let any food sit at room temperature for more than

2 hours - 1 hour if the ambient temperature is 90 o F (32 C) or above. When packing for a picnic, make sure the foods are already chilled when they go into the insulated hamper. The hamper won’t chill food - it just keeps food cold when properly packed
