HELPFUL HINTS WHEN BUYING AND
PREPARING FOOD
Care must be taken when handling foods in the
home. Always follow the basic rules of food hygiene
to prevent bacterial and microbial growth and cross
contamination when preparing, reheating, cooking,
cooling, defrosting and freezing foods:-
1. Avoid buying chilled or frozen products if you
cannot store them straight away. The use of an
insulated container when shopping is advisable.
2. When you arrive home, place perishable foods in
the refrigerator or freezer immediately. Ensure
they are well covered to prevent them drying out
and to prevent any possible cross contamination
with bacteria from raw to cooked foods.
3. In the kitchen keep work tops, chopping boards
and utensils clean with hot soapy water between
preparation stages. Ideally, keep one chopping
board for raw meat and another for other foods.
Keep your dish cloths and tea towels clean.
4. Follow the cooking instructions on packets of
prepared and cooked chilled foods, but be
prepared to adjust cooking time and
temperatures to suit your particular oven. For
example, the fan oven generally requires 20-
25°C lower temperature than conventional ovens.
5. Always ensure that cooked chilled foods are
thoroughly re-heated until they are piping hot
throughout.
6. If not eaten straight away after cooking, food
should be cooled as quickly as possible (within
one hour) and then refrigerated or frozen as
required. (Do not put hot food into a Refrigerator
or Freezer).
