i hope you all will be fine and enjoy your beautiful life friends today is my first article on read.cash. So without wasting time.

let's start....

Good food hygiene is crucial for your personal safety and the safety of people you cook for, whether you are a professional chef or an amateur chef.

We all have standards when we eat out (and many of us are surprised by the state of some of the professional kitchens at events like Gordon Ramsey's Kitchen Nightmares), but it's easy to let standards get into our own homes if we're not careful — and the consequences. can be just as deadly.

Although often thought of as a mild illness resulting from complex poisoning, food poisoning can easily occur at home and is very dangerous, especially for young children, causing up to 125,000 food poisoning deaths each year. It is far more important to apply the same hygiene principles in the home kitchen as in the restaurant.

To maintain your kitchen a safe environment for your loved ones, we've compiled a list of the most critical food hygiene tips for both home cooks and chefs.

facts about food poisoning:

• Foodborne illness causes 420,000 deaths each year, almost a third (125,000) of which are children

• 1 in 10 of the world's population suffers from food poisoning every year

• A total of 33 million years of healthy life (DALYs) are lost each year as a result of this.

• In the UK alone, 11 million workdays are lost every year

• Infectious bowel disease (IBD) patients require 50% of their time to rest. either at work or in school

• Norovirus and Campylobacter are the most common foodborne pathogens in the UK

• The risk of food poisoning is twice as high in restaurants than at home

Rotatory cleaning:

If you're a home cook, organizing a checklist or cleaning rotation is a great way to make sure you stay on top of all the cleaning tasks.You should already have one if you work in a professional kitchen.

Divide your homework into daily, weekly, or monthly tasks so you can see how often each task needs to be completed. For reference, anything you cook should be cleaned daily, including the oven, vents, surfaces, and any frying pans or utensils.

You should also lightly clean the floor daily, with deeper cleanings at weekly and monthly intervals.To avoid infection, refrigerators should be examined and emptied on a daily basis.

Refrigerator:

Your refrigerator is another potential source of food contamination. Water commonly departs the structure of food when it cools.. This water contains pathogens that can cause food contamination and disease.

Raw meat, in particular, carries a high risk of causing food poisoning, and water and blood can often spill onto other nearby foods. Therefore, it is important that you store meat on the bottom shelf and not place other foods near it (especially foods that can be eaten raw, such as fruits and vegetables).

Cold food should be refrigerated at 8°C or lower, or frozen at -18°C or below. Pre-frozen food should never be thawed and refrozen as this can lead to the growth of bacterial colonies.

Cupboard:

Foods stored at room temperature are usually less prone to serious problems such as food poisoning. However, you can extend the life of the materials in your cupboards by wrapping them tightly or resealing them after opening.

Seperate dish:

Using the same knife or cutting board for raw meat and fresh vegetables can lead to cross-contamination, which can help serious pathogens like salmonella spread and cause disease.

Ideally, to avoid cross-contamination, you should use separate containers for raw meat and vegetables, or at least wash your cookware in hot, soapy water between ingredients. You shouldn't have raw meat and fresh vegetables on the same surface at the same time.

Hair and Nails:

Hair should always be clean and tied back when preparing food. This is because the hair in your diet can carry pathogens such as Staph Aureus, a type of bacteria that can cause serious infections.

Hair can physically damage your digestive tract and potentially transmit foodborne illnesses such as cholera and typhoid. It is also considered a microbiological contaminant because contamination of hair in food can lead to the growth of colonies of biological pathogens.

Similarly, long or artificial nails can also be a breeding ground for bacteria and pathogenic activity because they are more difficult to clean.Nails should be kept short and neat at all times.If this isn't an option, putting medical gloves over long or fake nails is an option, although gloves should be replaced after eating raw meat.

Long beards and hair should be pulled back or kept in a hair/beard net.

Environmental Health Issues:

All wounds should be covered with blue tape to prevent the spread of germs. Blue also makes the patch easy to see if it falls off.

You should avoid cooking or handling food if you have a contagious skin infection to avoid contaminating food and cooking areas.

Wearing gloves can also help reduce exposure to water, irritants, and allergens.
