Kitchen Safety

Question

Cooking is fun, but it can be dangerous. That’s why it’s important to know kitchen safety rules.

Rule #1: Make sure you have an adult with you. Every chef needs an assistant, and adults can help you use certain kitchen tools safely.

Rule #2: Wash your hands. The last ingredient you want in your dish is germs. You should also make sure the surfaces and tools you’re using are clean.

Rule #3: Have an adult help you with sharp tools like knives and blenders. If you’re allowed to use a knife, make sure you know how to cut food properly.

Rule #4: Be careful using ovens and stoves. Have an adult turn on the stove or oven, and use oven mitts to pick up hot pots and pans.

Rule #5: Clean up as you go. It’s important to put sharp tools away when you’re done with them. Keeping a clean kitchen while you cook also helps make sure your food is germ-free.
