Storing
First of all, when you are planning on buying something you need to read the label on the packaging as it has
some essential information about how to store this particular product. Storage areas must be clean and be
cleaned regularly with the use of antibacterial cleaning products. Different types of food need to be stored
differently. Dry foods like flour, past and rice need to be stored in a cool, dry , clean space. Frozen food
needs to be put in the freezer as soon as possible after shopping, that will decrease the chance of defrosting
and bacterial growth. Raw meat and fish need to be kept away from other foods , in the bottom of the fridge,
to prevent cross contamination. You need to check the temperature of your fridge and freezer regularly.
Fridge need to be 0-4oC and freezer need to be at - 18oC.
Preparing
Already cooked and raw foods need to be kept apart to prevent cross contamination. Wash all the utensils
and equipment that you will be using. Wash your hands before cooking, make sure that you are not wearing
any jewelry and nail polish, tie up your hair. Don’t lick your fingers and the spoons while cooking. Wear
clean clothes in the kitchen. Keep your cooking space clean. Wash the food that you will be preparing e.g.
vegetables and fruits. Use different chopping boards for different types of food. Keep any pets away from
the kitchen so they do bring extra bacteria.
