6Recommendation 1 CLEAN
- Clean hands, food-contact surfaces, fruits and
vegetables.
Do NOT wash or rinse meat and poultry as this
could spread bacteria to other foods.
7Wash your hands!
Handwashing is the most effective way to stop
the spread of illness.
8How to wash hands
- Wet hands with WARM water.
- Soap and scrub for 20 seconds.
- Rinse under clean, running water.
- Dry completely using a clean cloth or paper towel.
9Clean during food preparation
- Wash cutting boards, knives, utensils and counter
tops in hot soapy water after preparing each food
and before going on to the next.
10Dirty dishcloths spread bacteria
- Wet or damp dishcloths are ideal environments for
bacterial growth. - Have a good supply of dishcloths to avoid reusing
them before laundry day.
There are more germs in the average kitchen than
the bathroom. Spongesand dishcloths are worst
offenders. research by Dr. Charles Gerba
11Recommendation 2 SEPARATE
- Separate raw, cooked, and ready-to-eat foods
while shopping, preparing or storing foods.
12 Use different cutting boards
- Use one cutting boardfor fresh produce and a
separate one for raw meat, poultry and seafood.
13Recommendation 3 COOK
- Cook foods to a safe temperature to kill
microorganisms.
14Chicken and turkey
Cook chicken and turkey (both whole birds and
poultry parts, such as wings, breasts, legs and
thighs, etc.) to 165 degrees F.
15Pork, egg dishes, hamburger ground meats
Cook pork, egg dishes, hamburger and ground meats
to 160 degrees F. Cook ground poultry to 165
degrees F.
16Leftovers
Reheat leftovers until a temperature of 165
degrees F is reached throughout the food.
17 Beef, lamb veal steaks
Cook beef, lamb and veal steaks and roasts to
160 degrees F for medium doneness (145 degrees F
for medium rare).

thermometers, visit this Web site
19The ONLY way to know food has been cooked to a
safe internal temperature is to use a food
thermometer!

24Disposable temperature indicators (Single-use)
- Reads in 5 -10 seconds
- Place approximately ½ inch deep (follow
manufacturer's directions) - Designed to be used only once
- Designed for specific temperature ranges
- Should only be used with food for which they are
intended - Temperature-sensitive material changes color when
the desired temperature is reached

25Placing a food thermometer
- Place in the thickest part of food.
- Do NOT touch bone, fat, or gristle.
- Begin checking temperature toward the end of
cooking, but before the food is expected to be
"done." - For irregularly shaped food such as with a beef
roast check the temperature in several places. - Clean thermometer with hot soapy water before and
after each use!
26Using a thermometer in thinner foods
- For thinner foods such as meat patties, pork
chops and chicken breasts, a DIGITAL
instant-read food thermometer should be used if
possible as it doesnt have to be inserted as
far as a DIAL instant-read thermometer. - Disposable temperature indicators are another
option.
For really thin foods, it maybe necessary to
inserta digital thermometer or disposable
temperatureindicator at an angle.
27Recommendation 4 CHILL
- Chill (refrigerate) perishable foods promptly and
defrost foods properly.
28The TWO-hour rule
- Refrigerate perishable foods so TOTAL time at
room temperature is less than TWO hours or only
ONE hour when temperature is above 90 degrees F.
- Perishable foods include
- Meat, poultry, fish, eggs, tofu
- Dairy products
- Pasta, rice, cooked vegetables
- Fresh, peeled/cut fruits and vegetables
29DANGER ZONE
- Bacteria multiply rapidly between 40 and 140
degrees F.
30A multiplication quiz
Bacteria numbers can double in 20 minutes!
- How many bacteria will grow from 1 BACTERIA left
at room temperature 7 hours?
31Answer 2,097,152!
Refrigerate perishable foods within TWO hours.
32How to be cool part 1
- Cool food in shallow containers. Limit depth of
food to 2 inches or less. - Place very hot foods on a rack at room
temperature for about 20 minutes before
refrigeration.
33How to be cool part 2
- Its OK to refrigerate foods while theyre
still warm. - Leave container cover slightly cracked until the
food has cooled.
34(can you guess?)
- How long would it take an 8-inch stock pot of
steaming chicken soup to cool to a safe
temperature in your refrigerator?
35Would you believe 24 hours!
- TOSS IT OUT!
- Remember Transfer hot foods to shallow
containers to speed cooling.
36Recommended refrigerator freezer temperatures
- Set refrigerator at 40 degrees F or below.
- Set freezer at0 degrees F.
37Place an appliance thermometer in your
refrigerator, freezer, and milk cooler!
38The THAW LAW
- Plan ahead to defrost foods.
- The best way to thaw perishable foods is in the
refrigerator.
39When to leave your leftovers
- Refrigerated leftovers may become unsafe within 3
to 4 days. - If in doubt, toss it out!
40Recommendation 5 AVOID...
- Raw (unpasteurized) milk or milk products
- Raw or partially cooked eggs and foods containing
raw eggs - Raw and undercooked meat and poultry
- Unpasteurized juices
- Raw sprouts
Most at risk are infants, young
children,pregnant women, older adults and
theimmunocompromised.
41Food safety recommendationsfor food groups
- The 2005 MyPyramid gives specific food safety
recommendations for each food group.
42Cleaning fruits vegetables
- Remove and discard outer leaves.
- Rinse under clean, running water just before
preparing or eating. - Rub briskly scrubbing with a clean brush or
hands to remove dirt and surface
microorganisms. - Dont use soap or detergent.
43Wash this produce, too!
- Bacteria on the outside of fruits can be
transferred to the inside when the fruit is
peeled or cut. - Wash fruits such as cantaloupe and other
melons under running water.
44Handling fruits vegetables
- Cover and refrigerate cut/peeled fruits and
vegetables. - TOSS cut/peeled fresh produce if left at room
temperature longer than TWO hours.
45Separate fruits vegetables from other foods
-
- Keep fruits and vegetables separate from raw
meat, poultry and seafood while shopping,
preparingor storing them.
46Read labels
- Read labels on bagged produce to determine if it
is ready-to-eat. - Ready-to-eat, prewashed, bagged produce can be
used without further washing if kept
refrigerated and used by the use-by date.
47Dairy dos and donts
- Refrigerate dairy foods promptly. Discard dairy
foods left at room temperature for more than two
hours even if they look and smell good.
48Avoid washing raw meat poultry
- Do NOT wash raw meat and poultry. Washing is not
necessary. - Washing increases the danger of
cross-contamination, spreading bacteria present
on the surface of meat and poultry to
ready-to-eat foods, kitchen utensils, and counter
surfaces.
49Refrigerator storage
- Store raw meat, poultry and seafood on the bottom
shelf of the refrigerator so juices dont drip
onto other foods.
50Cook to safe temperatures
- Avoid raw or partially cooked eggs or foods
containing raw eggs and raw/undercooked meat and
poultry.
Scrambled, poached, fried and hard-cooked eggs
are safe when cooked so both yolks and whites are
firm, not runny.
51Signs of safely cooked fish
- Fin fish Slip point of sharp knife into flesh
pull aside. Edges should be opaque, the center
slightly translucent with flakes beginning to
separate. Let stand 3 to 4 minutes to finish
cooking. - Shrimp, lobsters crab Turn red and flesh
becomes pearly opaque. - Scallops Turn milky white or opaque and firm.Â
- Clams, mussels oysters Watch for their shells
opening to know theyre done. Toss those that
stay closed. - The US Food Drug Administration recommends
cooking most seafood to an internal temperature
of 145 degrees F for 15 seconds.
