Personal Hygiene

Today I will be explaining some things about personal hygiene and how to keep yourself safe including others while cooking. Personal Hygiene is important for us to teach us to stay healthy and preventing any disease while cooking, I was told to make something that includes the "Personal Hygiene" words and then explain the reasons why it is important and how we prevent bad things from happening while cooking so here is a wordart I made that's all related to our Personal Hygiene...

Personal Hygiene WordArt:

So first off the first key things for my group in cooking which we are going to work on together are that we make sure we clean our hands all the time and remind them unless the forget and other things to keep our hygiene safe. So during and after cooking or practicals, make sure you clean your tables so you're able to work on a clean surface. Before touching any ingredients wash your hands so you don't spread germs or get anyone sick with those germs, also you must have different coloured cutting boards for specific food as shown below on the picture.

COLOUR CODED BOARDS:

The reason why we don't use the same boards is so that we don't mix for example "RAW FISH" with "VEGETABLES" or else the vegetables will start smelling like fish, it also helps you reduce the risk of cross-contamination which is transferring bacteria from one object or food to another which can often cause harm to our health and make us sick or even getting an infection. 

Another thing to keep in mind is not to use the same towel over and over again so collect new towels because some towels may have germs in them if used for a week or so, it's better to wash it and use it later after dried up because if you use that same towel your basically spreading more germs from other people and we don't want that. So these were the basics and if you found this helpful leave a comment and hope you enjoyed or learned something from this post. Stay safe and have a great day😄👍...

  1. Hi Ranit. You have some very relevant points in your Hygiene Blog. In recent times we have all become very aware of Hygienic practices!
    One thing I'd like you to check is the information relating to the Colour Coded Boards which are used here in the New Zealand Food Industry and prepare a short Blog to share. Thanks Ranit.
