Don’t use hot water to squeeze the chopping board! Nutritionist: If you encounter this type of food slag, it will be more difficult to wash when it is hot and solidified.

The weather is hot and the food is preserved as a major issue. If you are not careful, it will easily breed bacteria. Chen Yaoren, the director of the Food Medicine Management Department of the Prefectural Health Bureau of Pingtung County, and Hu Yimei, a community nutritionist, reminded that the food should be kept in a proper manner to avoid repeated decontamination and changes in quality, which can easily cause stains.

Put it in refrigeration overnight before cooking, which is a safe and fresh solution. {999 9}

Meat and seafood are dried, Chen Yaoren suggests "refrigerated pot" to remove the refrigerated pot the night before cooking, put it in the refrigerator refrigerated pot. It must be fully packaged or topped with a cover to avoid absorbing the strange smell in the refrigerator, and to prevent the ingredients from drying, and place it on the lower layer of the refrigerator to prevent the blood of the meat from dripping and dyeing other foods in the refrigerator. Slowly dehydrate in a low-temperature refrigerated warehouse to reduce the chance of bacterial growth, and also retain the flavor and nutritional value of the food. It is the most recommended and safest way to dehydrate.

Purchase bulk eggs, don't rush to clean them and clean them before cooking.

Nutritionist Hu Yimei said that the bulk eggs that are often warm in traditional markets can be stored directly in a cool place for about 7 to 10 days. However, the weather is hot and the shelf life will be shortened. If stored in the refrigerator, it can extend the storage time.

Hu Weimei reminded that cleaning with water will increase the permeability of the pore structure on the surface of the egg shell and the outside world, which will increase the possibility of pathogenic microorganisms invading the eggs, especially Rosemary Salmon, and the shelf life after cleaning will be shorter. If the eggs are covered with no chicken or dirty surfaces, it is recommended to pack them and store them directly in the refrigerator. If there is any dirty surface, it is recommended to wipe them with a clean cloth dipped in water.

"It is necessary to clean before cooking. The production path of the female chicken lays the eggs and the excretion position of the stool." Hu Weimei said that egg shells are easily contaminated with chicken, and there are often cyperus or cyperus samurai. Cleaning before cooking can avoid surface bacteria and dirt from contacting edible eggs when knocking on the egg shell.

Three-stage egg beating

If multiple eggs are required to be used during cooking, the three-stage egg beating method should be adopted, otherwise a rotten chicken egg may dye the whole dish.

After the washed eggs are knocked on → beat the eggs to empty bowl A, check for non-corrosion → confirm that non-corrosion eggs, then pour in empty bowl B

The chopping board should be provided at least two pieces, and the raw and cooked food should be divided, and it will be replaced in 2 to 3 years.

Many people often cut a cutting board to the end, which can easily lead to cross-dyeing. Nutritionist Hu Yimei said that when using a cutting board, you must divide raw and cooked food and mark it, or divide it into different colors to facilitate identification. It would be better if you can prepare the third cutting board to process vegetables.

Hu Weimei reminds that the cutting board should be cleaned immediately after use to prevent the slag of food from staying on the surface of the cutting board and allowing the microorganisms to grow. When cleaning, use a food washing agent with a fine vegetarian cloth to brush it to avoid using a steel brush to scratch the surface of the cutting board. Do not wash directly with hot water, because the protein in the food residue is not easy to wash when it is hot and solidified. Wash it and put it in the wind and dry it to prevent mold.

Chen Yaoren said that when there are obvious knife marks, black color and mold on the chopping board, it should be replaced immediately. If it is often used but has no obvious appearance changes, it is recommended to change it in 2 to 3 years.

The rice will change after the room temperature is stored for more than 2 hours. The adhesion indicates the growth of cactus.

Be careful when taking overnight dishes. Chen Yaoren said that overnight dishes should be stored in glass, stainless steel, and ceramic containers. After cooking, they should be prepared. As long as you touch the box, it feels like it is not burning, you can refrigerate it in the refrigerator to avoid deterioration.

Some people are accustomed to cooking a large pot of rice at a time and keep it in refrigerated for a whole week. Chen Yaoren said, "As long as the rice is kept at room temperature for more than 2 hours, it will begin to change. In the hot summer, if the rice is slightly sticky, it means that the cactus bacteria are beginning to grow. In addition, it is not heated until it is consumed, which can easily lead to food poisoning."

Chen Yaoren said, after cooking, place it at about 6℃, and then put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration. Do not leave it for more than 2 hours. The refrigeration temperature is below 4℃. Take out the refrigerator to heat it up and add the temperature to above 70℃ to have a bacteria-killing effect.

Chen Yaoren said that before eating, you can first use a fresh box or glass bowl to separate the rice in small portions, and cover it with a layer of fresh film. After placing it, do not burn your hands and immediately put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration. Nowadays, small families have a small number of people and don’t eat much. The best way is to cook appropriately and eat it that day to avoid a large amount of food in the refrigerator.

Many people like to make kimchi and make various fermented foods by themselves. Hu Mei reminds that self-made fermented foods should be cleaned and removed if there are rotten parts to avoid fermentation failure or odor. The fermentation environment should be clean and hygienic. Sunflower vegetables should not directly touch the ground, and the upper layer is covered with a network. Clean and disinfect the glass bottle to avoid bacterial stains. Before eating, observe whether the color, taste, and non-stickiness of the pesticide foods. If you notice that the food is moldy, please do not eat it.

Chopping board material comparison

There are four common cutting board materials, each with its advantages and disadvantages. It is recommended to choose suitable cutting board according to the characteristics of the cut food and the habit of use.

Wooden cutting board

is suitable for chopping raw meat, which is less likely to cause damage to the tool, but it is easy to absorb water and mold, and should not be soaked in water for a long time, which is easy to breed bacteria.

Plastic cutting board

is thin and affordable, but it is prone to leave knife marks. If it is severely damaged, it must be replaced. Do not directly put on plastic cutting boards to cut high-temperature and high-oil foods to avoid excessive heat resistance.

Glass cutting board

is not easy to adhere to smell and is resistant to high temperatures, but it is easy to cause the tool to become slid and slippery when used, so you need to be careful.

Stainless steel cutting board

is a common new material in recent years. It has a smooth surface and is not easy to leave knife marks, which is convenient for cleaning and maintenance, but it is easy to cause tool abrasion and slippery when used. Pay special attention to the problems of safe operation..
