It is rather difficult to imagine a much better way to spend your time than with your family. Only when all your friends and loved ones gather around one table can you truly appreciate what life has to offer.
A good get together demands plenty of preparations. That is right – those meals are not going to cook for themselves you know. Of course, you will want to offer the best kind of food to your guests. However, do not be too enthusiastic – never lose your head, never rush and stay safe.
Did you know that a lot of people are hospitalized because of the burns, knife cuts and eye irritation every year, the injuries and traumas acquired in their own kitchen?
Even if you are inclined to prepare the best and most exquisite meal imaginable, plan your time and make sure not to rush. Even if the guests will arrive in an hour, you still have enough to figure something out. More importantly, do not forget to follow some simple rules and you are going to be fine:
- Do not forget to wash your hands before cooking
- Do not forget to wipe any spills. After all, you can slip and fall, which may result in injuries
- Do not forget to unplug any appliances prior to touching edges or blades
- Do not forget to store some baking soda in case you will need to take care of grease fire
- Do not forget to purchase a fire extinguisher – it should also be nearby
The above-mentioned rules are simple to follow, but there are also things that you must never do, regardless of how hasty you want to be and namely:
- Never cook in loose clothes that can easily be caught on fire
- Never depend on texture and color of the food when trying to figure out whether it is done
- Never use tin foil in your microwave
Of course, these are not all the recommendations you should stick to – only the most basic ones. Still, if you wish to avoid any injuries or traumas, it is important to follow those rules. Safety should always come first, no matter how late you may be, think about your health and wellbeing. Even a family get together is not worth being cut or burned, so make sure you do your best to remain safe at all time.
