Hygiene management at home

Not only food, but also plates and tables have a very small amount of germs on their surfaces. Here are some things to keep in mind when cooking.

To enjoy delicious meat with peace of mind

Bacteria live on the surface of meat. The surface of the steak is also cooked at a high temperature, so there is no problem even if it is rare. Make sure that the minced meat is thoroughly cooked all the way through.

There are five ways to cook meat: grilling, boiling, stewing, frying, and steaming. Each surface temperature is as follows.

In this way, " baking " and " frying " dishes expose the surface temperature to high temperatures, and " boiling ", " simmering " and " steaming " dishes require slow heating, so the surface of the meat should be sufficiently heated. It is in a state where it has passed through, so you can eat it with confidence.

When using minced meat, such as Hamburg Steaks, heat the food well so that the inside of the food is fully cooked .
