Food Safety Tip

Temperature is a recurring theme in this book. When cooking food, it must reach 60°C to kill bacteria. That’s 60° in the middle, not the outside and it is also a minimum temperature. Higher temperatures are more effective at killing bacteria. With celebrity chefs there is an increasing trend to undercook food which may enhance the flavour but it won’t kill bacteria.
