10 hygiene rules for in the kitchen?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Defining the most import hygiene rules in the kitchen is really a task of listing the most general rules of the kitchen. Each rule will have specifics that everyone needs to know. But here's one list

  1. Keep everything clean and sanitary
  2. Use proper personal hygiene
  3. Prevent cross contamination
  4. Cook and cool food properly
  5. Keep hot foods hot
  6. Keep cold foods cold

What follows are thoughts from other contributors:

PERSONAL HYGIENE

1. wash hands with warm soapy water

2. tie hair back and cover where required or appropriate

3. don't wear make up or nail polish

4. always remove watches, jewelery, etc. before cooking

5. if wearing shirt button up cufflings

6. don't wear open-toed shoes (more of a workplace safety issue)

7. wear an apron to protect your clothes. Change aprons when they get dirty.

8. if you have a cut put on blue plaster (no foods are blue)

KITCHEN HYGIENE

1. make sure surfaces are clean and sanitary

2. all your equipment and utensils are clean and dry

3. your sinks are clean and sanitary

4. bins not over flowing

5. floor is not wet (splash becomes source of contamination)

6. cookers are clean

7.dont use out of date food

8. don't chop raw meat and other food on the same chopping board

9. always wash food before cooking

10. keep your cooking area tidy

11. make sure that you use clean utensils for each type of food that you work with

12. don't keep meat so long out of the freezer

13. don't sneeze or cough on the food

14. wash vegetables before cooking

15. if you put a spoon in food and lick it then don't put it back in the food

Wash hands before any contact with food if you sneeze always cover your mouth and turn away from the food and then wash your hands no smoking inside if something is spilt always clear it up straight away always wash surfaces straight after contact with raw meet.

1: ALWAYS wash your hands

2: If you have long hair, tie it up and pull your hair back.

3: Wear an apron because you don't want to ruin your clothes. [Note: Aprons are for protecting the food from your clothes. You can't take your clothes off when you go to the bathroom. You can and should remove the apron on breaks. Aprons are also easily changed when they become dirty.]

4: Don't eat any of the food mixture until finished, if you do, wash your hands again.

5: Sneeze AWAY from the food, as well as coughing.

6: ALWAYS wash the food before cooking.

7: ALWAYS check the food before you buy it.

Basically the rules of food hygiene are common sense rules to stop contamination of food while preparing or serving it. Remember, cooking food kills most germs. If you aren't going to cook it yourself before eating it then you have to store it carefully and make sure the way you prepare it is clean. Make sure it has few chances of encountering raw food, especially raw protein like meat which bacteria thrive on.

If food is not going to be cooked before you serve it - like cooked meats, cheese, cakes etc then you should store them on the top shelves of your fridge so no contaminants can drop onto them. You shouldn't cut these food stuffs with any knife that has been used on raw meat (unless it's been washed properly - rinsing under the tap won't do unless your tap spews boiling water). Ideally you should use different knives and chopping boards for raw meat and everything else.

Finally, ALWAYS wash your hands after putting something in the bin/trash. It's easy to forget, I know. Especially when trimming and peeling vegetables. My kitchen bin is host to microbes that feed on chicken skin, old cat food, veggie peelings, leftovers and everything. It's a hot bed of microbe reproduction activity. I bet yours is pretty similar! If my hands go to the bin I make sure my next stop is a good hand washing. You don't need to waste money on antibacterial soap, normal soap does the job just as well. And it's better that the germs get washed down the sink than transferred to your lovely green salad!

The four golden rules are

  1. Always tie back your hair and wash your hands
  2. Never cross contamination use coloured chopping boards!
  3. Always cook meat completely.
  4. And last but definitely not least, Always clean up everything properly after use. Use hot soapy water.
And those are the GOLDEN rules of the kitchen!!!!

Is it illegal to spit in someone food in the UK?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In a restaurant or food serving establishment, it would be a breach of hygiene practice. This should (theoretically) get the person who spat in the food fired, or possibly get the restaurant closed (but both of these are unlikely, since the customer is unlikely to know that the food has been spat in, so will not report it to the local health authority. Also, other employees at the restaurant are unlikely to report it, because if the restaurant closed down they would be unemployed). More likely, the person who did spit in the food will probably keep their job.

If the person who spat in to food did so knowing that they carried a contagious disease (whether they work in a restaurant, or are just serving food to others in their home) and intended to cause harm, this may result in a prison sentence.

If however, the person who spits in the food does not carry anything contagious, and is not working in a food serving environment, it is not illegal.
