We've just finished our kitchen safety unit in Food & Nutrition. Hopefully you've learned a few new things. I want you to think about the things we've covered. What is one new principle you've learned that you think is important enough to put into action. If you didn't learn anything new, what is something you could do better at as you work in the kitchen.

Ive learned that foods that are frozen still have bacteria they are just dormant. Ive also learned that food shouldn't be defrosted on the kitchen counter. The biggest thing i learned was how to was dishes in the right way cause I thought you could wash them any way in any order.
ReplyDeleteSOMETHING NEW THAT I LEARNED IN THIS CLASS WAS THAT WHEN YOU ARE UNTHAWING MEATS IN WATER, TO REPLACE WATER EVERY 30 MINUTES. PRETTY NEAT STUFF TO LEARN :)
ReplyDeleteI have learned not to leave a pan with it's handle hanging over the edge of the counter! It makes alot of sense, especially with little children running around. I have also learned not to take hot pans out of the oven with my bare hands! :) haha
ReplyDeleteto clean up after you are done so that bacteria doesnt spread as easily.............
ReplyDeleteI learned that your not supposed to thaw meat on the counter.
ReplyDeleteI have learned to not defrost your meat by just setting it on the counter. Some ways you should defrost your meat is put it in the fridge, put it in cold water replacing the water every thirty mins, and putting it in the mircrowave. Properly defrosting the meat helps to lesson the risk of e-coli.
ReplyDeleteOne new thing that i have learned and will put into action in my house is how we deforst our meat, becasue my mom just sets it out on the counter. so i will teach her about the cold water and replace it every half hour.
ReplyDeletei learned not to let raw meat defrost on the counter and to put it in a bowl with cold water and let it sit there for 30 minutes. so now il do that instead of putting it on the counter.
ReplyDeleteWell i learned that when you have kids around you should always keep the pan handel away from the edeg of the stove. And you should always cut away from yourself not towared you. and always keep your hands clean at all times
ReplyDeletethe thing that i have learned is a sharp knife is beter and safer than a new one.
ReplyDeleteto wash your hands for 20 seconds
ReplyDeleteI learned you must wash your hands for 20 seconds with warm water and soap to get all the bacteria off. You need two rags, one to whipe your hands with, and one to whipe the counters and stuff with.
ReplyDeletewell I never knew about the whole food needs to be out at a certain time, and I didn't know that you had to wash your hnds for twenty seconds I just wash them and ry them but I don't ever do it for twenty seconds oh and by the way I liked that test it was easy only because you helped us stusdy before if you didn't I would of failed thanks

ReplyDeleteI learned about cross contamination and how certain things can kill you or get you sick, and how and where to put certain things at and how to wash the dishes, counters, and oven better.
ReplyDeleteTo not touch a hot pan with your bare hand and to not mix ammonia and bleach together.
ReplyDeletei learned the dieases that foods get when not handled properly. like when canning food, if you don't do it properly the canned food could get Botulism.. :)
