The storage, preparation and cooking of food must be done in a "clean environment":
- Clean your refrigerator regularly (once or twice a month)
- Wash your utensils and dishes carefully:
- either by hand with hot water and liquid dish detergent (and then dry them with a clean towel)
- or in the dishwasher with the temperature set to 60°
- Keep your work spaces clean.
- Wash your hands before cooking.
- Prepare small amounts at meals to avoid leftovers and cook all foods thoroughly.
- Store fresh or already cooked foods in the refrigerator.
- Eat leftovers, use up the baby food in jars and opened packages within 48 hours of storing them in the refrigerator.
- Cook frozen foods directly without defrosting them first.
- Never refreeze food that has already been thawed.
- Check product expiration dates.
- When shopping, wrap up fresh foods and then put them in an insulated bag to avoid breaking the cold chain.
