Kitchen Cleanliness and Safety Guidelines!

• Wash counter tops, tables and other work surfaces
  before you begin cooking. You never know what was
  left there last hour!
• Keep work surfaces and utensils clean as you
  work. Wipe up spills right away. Thoroughly
  clean utensils and equipment after each use.
• Wash pots, pans, and dishes in hot soapy water as
  soon as possible after using them. Make sure
  your are letting things soak if they are baked
  on!

• Wash tools and utensils that have been used on
  raw foods before you use them on cooked foods.
  This will prevent you from
• getting sick!
• Change dish towels, sponges and hand towels
  often. We wash them between every period.

• Dispose of all food properly. We DO NOT have
  dishwashers or garbage disposals. NO PUTTING
  FOOD DOWN THE DRAIN!
• Clean up well after food preparation. Be sure
  work surfaces have been cleaned and sanitized.
  Dont forget to sweep crumbs from the floor.
• ONLY TAKE THE FOOD your ordered.
• Let your teacher know if something breaks. She
  will clean it up.

• There will be no roughhousing/ running/ hitting.
  We are using boiling liquids and knives.
  Misbehavior will not be tolerated and will be
  punished in an appropriate fashion.
• It is your job to keep this room safe and clean.
  If you are not all doing your job with this,
  people risk injury or illness, and we will wreck
  our brand new room! ? Please be careful and
  ask questions if you need help!
