At the time of cooking
Respect the usual practices of good food handling. Take advantage of the traditional recipes for use to avoid food waste at all costs.
Kitchen and utensil cleaning
Clean crockery and kitchenware, preferably in a dishwasher, at maximum temperature. Once the cooking is finished, do a general cleaning of the kitchen and the floor and ventilate the entire environment.
Sanitize dish towels
Change and wash kitchen towels and textile frequently at each cooking session and at maximum temperature. Leave the scouring pads and cloths to soak in 10% bleach for five minutes.
Cooking food at high temperature
Cook food at a high temperature above 70º and keep it protected to avoid recontamination. If the food is not going to be consumed immediately, refrigerate it or keep it warm above 65º. Consume them as soon as possible.
Safety and hygiene habits for children in the kitchen
Do not use knives without supervision and use a cutting board for fruits and vegetables. Always wash your hands before cooking, rubbing them vigorously with warm soapy water. Before cooking, wear an apron, hair up and wear short-sleeved or rolled-up clothes. Clean up spills immediately. Use a paper towel, avoiding sponges or kitchen towels.
