What is the primary purpose of handwashing in food safety?

To remove dirt and pathogens from the hands, preventing cross-contamination.



Explain the importance of cooking food to the correct internal temperature.

Cooking food to the appropriate internal temperature kills harmful bacteria and reduces the

risk of foodborne illnesses.



Describe the correct method for thawing frozen food safely.

Frozen food should be thawed in the refrigerator, under cold running water, or in the

microwave, never at room temperature.



What are the potential hazards of using the same cutting board for raw meat and vegetables?

Using the same cutting board can lead to cross-contamination, transferring harmful bacteria

from raw meat to vegetables.



Define the term "cross-contamination" in the context of food safety.

Cross-contamination refers to the transfer of harmful bacteria or allergens from one food or

surface to another.

, What is the recommended maximum time for food to be left out at room temperature?

Food should not be left out at room temperature for more than two hours to minimize the risk

of bacterial growth.



How should leftovers be stored to ensure food safety?

Leftovers should be cooled quickly, placed in shallow containers, and stored in the

refrigerator or freezer within two hours of cooking.



What is the safe way to handle food when using gloves?

Hands should be washed before putting on gloves, and gloves should be changed when

switching tasks or when they become contaminated.



Explain the role of a food thermometer in food safety.

A food thermometer accurately measures the internal temperature of food to ensure it is

cooked safely and thoroughly.



What is the proper way to sanitize food contact surfaces?

Surfaces should be cleaned with soap and water, rinsed, and then sanitized with an

appropriate food-safe sanitizer.



How can food handlers prevent allergens from contaminating food?

Food handlers can prevent allergen contamination by using separate utensils and equipment,

thoroughly cleaning surfaces, and washing hands before handling allergen-free food.
