Cooking Guide and Tips — Food Handling

Safe steps in food handling, cooking, and storage are essenal in prevenng food-borne illness. You can't see, smell, or taste

harmful bacteria that may cause illness. In every step of food preparaon, follow these four guidelines to keep food safe:

• Clean—Wash hands and surfaces oen

• Separate—Keep raw meat apart from other foods

• Cook—Cook to the right temperature

• Chill—Refrigerate food promptly

Cook all food to these minimum internal temperatures as measured with a food thermometer before removing food from the heat

source. You may choose to cook food to higher temperatures. A holding temperature of 140° F (60° C) or higher is recommended

for food safety.
