Kitchen safety

Kitchen safety involves practices that prevent accidents and injuries while cooking. Always wash your hands before handling food to avoid contamination. Use sharp knives carefully, cutting away from your body, and keep them stored safely. Be aware of hot surfaces and use oven mitts. Avoid cross-contamination by keeping raw meats separate from other foods. Keep flammable items away from the stove and never leave cooking unattended. In case of a fire, use a lid or baking soda to smother flames. Lastly, store cleaning supplies out of reach of children, ensuring a safe cooking environment for everyone.
