Kitchen Know How
When it comes to working in the kitchen, safety is important. Working in an orderly manner can prevent accidents from happening. It is also important to understand what to do if an accident does happen. Understanding basic safety guidelines and first aid will help you deal with personal injury. Also understanding guidelines will prevent costly damage to kitchen equipment.
General Safety Guidelines
Move in an unhurried, orderly way.
Keep the floor clear and clean at all times. If something spills on the floor, stop and wipe it up.
Keep pot handles turned to the back or protected side of the cook top.
Turn burners off and unplug appliances when not in use.
Ensure equipment is in good working order. Never use a pot with a loose handle. Ensure electrical cords are in good repair before use.
Keep kitchen cleaners and poisons clearly labelled and out of reach of children.
Preventing Fires
Ensure there is no paper near a cooking surface. Do not wear loose clothing; it may come in contact with a flame or burner.
Never leave fat unattended while cooking with it. If oil begins to smoke, it is too hot. Keep children away while cooking with oil.
Frayed or broken electrical cords should be properly repaired before use.
While using small electrical appliances, first plug the electrical cord in to appliance then into the wall outlet. When finished using the appliance, unplug the cord first from the wall then from the appliance before storing it.
Different types of fires require different approaches to deal with them. General advice is to turn off the heat and cut off the air supply to the fire. Keep a kitchen extinguisher nearby at all times. There are 4 types of fires that are more common in a kitchen.
Paper or fabric fires – (cookbooks, tea towels) Dowse the flames with water or cover the fire with an asbestos blanket and stamp out flames.
Fat, oil fires – (oil in a fry pan) Never use water!! It will spread the flames, which may ignite something else. Use baking soda, salt or a chemical extinguisher to smother the flames. Fire extinguishers should be pointed towards the base of the flames.
Oven Fire – Never open the oven door!! Opening the door will allow oxygen in and the fire will instantly gain in intensity. Leave the oven door closed and turn off the element.
Electrical Fire – Use a chemical extinguisher at the base of the fire. Turn off the breaker to that outlet and unplug the appliance.
Preventing Burns
Ensure you are using adequate heat protection when handling containers that are hot. Oven mitts should be used when putting items in or taking them out of the oven. Potholders should have adequate padding and be dry so the heat does not transfer and form steam. Using a dish towel or the end of an apron is unsafe. It may not have adequate protection and may touch a hot element and catch fire.
Steam should be released from pats by tilting the lid away from your body. Drain foods from boiling water by pouring the water away from you. Ensure you are using both hands and that they are covered by potholders or oven mitts. Remove lids and plastic wrap from microwave dishes carefully so steam does not hurt your face or hands.
Put the burned area under gently running cold water or immerse it in a sink of cold water. Continue until the pain is gone.
