What are the 5 C's in cooking?

Answer 1

Cleanliness

You can stop the spread of harmful bacteria by using good personal hygiene and keeping work surfaces, utensils and hand contact surfaces clean.

It's important to wash your hands regularly, especially after visiting the toilet, after handling raw foods and before touching ready-to-eat food.

Cooking

Proper cooking kills food poisoning bacteria such as listeria, salmonella, E.coli O157 and campylobacter. It's important to cook food thoroughly, especially meat.

Make sure that food is cooked right through and piping hot in the middle --aim for 75 degrees Celsius and check with a probe or needle thermometer.

Chilling

It's very important to keep certain foods at the right temperature to prevent bacteria growing or toxins forming.

Always look at the label on the packaging. If it says that the food needs to be refrigerated, make sure you keep it in the fridge.

Cross-contamination

Cross-contamination is the transfer of bacteria from foods - usually raw - to other foods. The bacteria can be transferred directly when one food touches, or drips onto, another or indirectly, for example from hands, equipment, work surfaces, or knives and other utensils.

Cross-contamination is one of the major causes of food poisoning.
