Welcome to the Foodsafe partnership
Four simple rules will help keep you safe from foodborne illness.
Follow the 4Cs: Clean, Cook, Cover, Chill.
1. Clean hands
Wash and dry your hands before handling food. Clean utensils amd scrub chopping boards between preparing raw and cooked food.
2. Cook food
Cook minced meat and sausages right through - use a meat thermometer to check the temperature. Cook pork and poultry until juices run clear. Reheat leftovers 'til steaming hot throughout.
3. Cover food
The only time food should be uncovered is when you're eating it.
4. Chill food
Keep raw and cooked food separate in the fridge. Use a chilly bin and frozen pad outside to keep food cool.
