Default FOOD SAFETY and SANITATION

We have a lot of topics already about food but havent seen or read about the FOOD SAFETY and the SANITATION that compliments it . I will comeback for more on the topic and I hope it will help a lot of FOODLOVERS here . ANyone who wants to give out what they know on identified violations , FBI , prevention or just anything under the sun regarding the SAFEY of our health from what we eat are all free to do so . Lets share knowledge here for all to enjoy .

There is an old saying: 'For want of a nail, the horseshoe was lost. For want of a horseshoe, the steed was lost. For want of a steed, the message was not delivered. For want of message, the war was lost.

keep DIFFERENT CHOPPING BOARDS intawn for meat...for poultry and for veggies.  I KNOW...kapuy to have so many and good cutting boards are not cheap......but then it pays to be safe than sorry.

Rachel Weisz (?) was once a guest in Oprah's show. (FYI: She is famous for her 30-min recipes). She mentioned na u don't need lots of chopping boards. You only need 2:
- One wide, thick, wooden chopping board for stuff like tomatoes, onions, etc..
- One rubberlike chopping board for your meat

And to keep these clean daw, all u need to do is sprinkle salt to your boards before putting them back for keeping.

yes she did....but she prob forgot about the poultry one.  if you regulary watch her 30-min meals show on lifestyle channel 41 (which is on every 3pm...FYI),  she keeps on saying that you need a separate one for poultry. so plastic one for the  meat...one plastic one for the poultry.  the wooden one for the veggies. i think ang wooden u need to rub with the salt. not sprinkle. i really am not sure. i do not remember what was said about this. basta ako...hugasan ng mabuti tanan.

and her name is rachel ray

ako meron pa isang suggestion...plan your movements in the kitchen to lessen cross-contamination. in other words... ang bacteria sige go wherever u go hehehehe.

what i normally do is cut up the veggies first...then the meat and then poultry. WASH WASH WASH hands jud especially when handling poultry. para mas sanitary....use liquid soap with a pump dispenser. daming mura na nyan ngayon... sa WATSON'S meron iba't ibang scent pa jud. i forgot how much basta less than a hundred pesos for a big bottle.

Speaking of CROSS CONTAMINATION which is very critical because it can kill .... as a chef , I practice what every chef practices by color coding the kitchen equipment . I know it wont really matter at home bcause it is costly but better safe than sorry . The color code I am about to put out is a standardized code . It applies to knives and cutting boards most of the time .

- RED = raw meats ( pork , beef , lamb , etc )
- GREEN = fruits and vegetables ( garden salads )
- BLUE = seafoods
- YELLOW=cooked meats
- BROWN = poultry
- WHITE = bakery products and desserts

There is an old saying: 'For want of a nail, the horseshoe was lost. For want of a horseshoe, the steed was lost. For want of a steed, the message was not delivered. For want of message, the war was lost.

My suggestion is have only the commonly used chopping board say for meats and poultries readily available . Marking it is ok and seafoods are rarely prepared in the house anyways . ANg poultry lang ang grabe maka produced ng BACTERIA .

Next topic would be PERSONAL HYGEINE , as a kitchen worker :

- females should have hair nets
- males should have ball caps
- fingersnails should always be trimmed
- always take a shower before reporting to work
- wear a clean uniform
- dont come in to work if you are sick ie * DIARRHEA , FLU , FEVER etc
- always wash hands AFTER you use the bathroom , smoke , scratch your face , ears , nose etc

================================================== ===================

A quick overview on FBI

F.B.I= Foodborne Illness

A foodborne illness or food poisoning is any illness resulting from the consumption of food contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, toxins, viruses, prions or parasites. Such contamination usually arises from improper handling, preparation, or food storage. Good hygiene practices before, during, and after food preparation can reduce the chances of contracting an illness. The action of monitoring food to ensure that it will not cause foodborne illness is known as food safety.


More here for information and knowledge :

akong sister naa sad siya own way of avoiding contamination.....gi designate niya iya left hand as her "clean" hand...so as much as possible she does not touch her face with her right hand...same way she tries not to use her left hand to open doors...grab railings etc

slightly off topic ni...kay di man jud ni applicable about food preparation...pero helpful avoiding flu etc....

Another food safety I can think of na very BASIC :

- kung CANNED FOOD lovers mo , avoid any dented cans because chances are infected na siya ug BOTULISM . BOTULISM is :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botulism

- avoid eating RAW foods because it is the cause of the FBI we call SALMONELLA . SALMONELLA is :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmonella

Raw foods that needs to be avoided includes and specially poultry items :

1. SUNNY SIDE EGGS
2. RARE/MEDIUM RARE/BLUED GRILLED MEATS
