LABORATORY GUIDELINES AND SAFETY RULES IN THE KITCHEN

 Cooking is fun, but kitchen safety is a priority. There are many pieces of
equipment and environmental hazards that can be extremely dangerous.
 Sharp objects like knives, open fire by the oven, electrical appliances, and even
bacteria around the kitchen. Observing basic rules of kitchen safety is a good
habit to develop.
 Always pay attention to what you’re doing in the kitchen because one slip can
cause serious injury or accidents.
 To prevent serious injuries or accidents: always pay attention to what you’re
doing, adopt a plan for kitchen cleanliness, and have necessary safety equipment
at your disposal. It’s also important to be aware of who is in the space.
 Store knives in a wooden block or in a drawer. Make sure
the knives are out of the reach of children. Follow these 
knife safety tips to prevent injury.
 Never cook in loose clothes and keep long hair tied
back. You don’t want anything accidentally catching fire (not
to mention hair ending up in the food!).
 Never cook while wearing dangling jewelry. A bracelet can
get tangled around pot handles.
RULES IN THE KITCHEN

 Keep potholders nearby and use them! Be careful not to


leave them near an open flame.
 Turn pot handles away from the front of the
stove. Children can’t grab them, and adults can’t bump into
them if they’re out of the way.
 Don’t let temperature-sensitive foods sit out in the
kitchen. 
 Raw meat, fish, and certain dairy products can spoil quickly,
so refrigerate or freeze them right away.
 Wipe up spills immediately. Keep the floor dry so that no one slips and falls.
 Separate raw meat and poultry from other items whenever you use or
store them. This precaution avoids cross-contamination of harmful bacteria
from one food to another.
 Wash your hands before handling food and after handling meat or
poultry. Hands can be a virtual freight train of bacteria.
 Get a fire extinguisher for your kitchen. This device may not do much for
your cherries jubilee, but it can avert a disaster. You should do your best to 
prevent a kitchen fire, but sometimes it’s out of your hands. So, make sure
you know how to use the extinguisher before a fire breaks out.
