Kitchen Safety

Most people enjoy cooking and making use of their kitchen appliances. What many individuals do not consider is how unsafe cooking can really be. That is why it is very important to take some precautions in the kitchen:

• Wear tight fitting or rolled up sleeves when cooking. Clothing is very flammable and can easily catch fire if it gets too close to extreme heat
• Use oven mitts instead of pot holders to handle hot pans
• Never leave you cooking unattended and always set a timer
• If a fire does start on the stove, slide a lid over it and turn off the burner
• Do not cook if you are drowsy from alcohol or medication

Cooking comes with its fair share of dangers and it is always better to be safe than sorry.
