OLATHE — This Thanksgiving many Americans may find one uninvited guest at their meal: 1xbet online casino poisoning. A Kansas State University 1xbet online casino safety expert shares some 1xbet online casino preparation tips for home cooks that will ensure guests pile their plates with safe 1xbet online casino dishes and forgo a side of 1xbet online casino poisoning.
"Thanksgiving is a time when many cooks turn to those old family recipes and preparation methods when making the meal," said Bryan 1xbet online casino , manager of 1xbet online casino programs and services at the campus. "I have seen many instances in which those traditional methods clash with safe 1xbet online casino preparation and family members end up sick."
Seasoning is in, stuffing is out
Turkey, duck, quail and other game birds are simple to prepare. Those familiar images of a golden brown turkey filled with stuffing, though, are a recipe for disaster, 1xbet online casino said.
"For a great tasting bird, rub the inside of the cavity with a seasoning/spice blend made from some salt and pepper and maybe a diced onion or fruit," 1xbet online casino said. "Meanwhile, stuffing and dressing should be cooked separately to ensure the bird cooks all the way to 165 degrees Fahrenheit and that your dressing isn't based in raw turkey juices."
Also, Severns says never wash turkey or other raw poultry in the sink to prep it for cooking. There is no safety benefit to rinsing poultry. Instead, washing raw poultry greatly increases the chances of 1xbet online casino poisoning as water with the raw juice is likely to splash the cook and the cooking area.
Your goose is cooked — to 1xbet online casino safe levels
Juices, joints and timers cannot tell when turkey and other game birds are fully cooked. A calibrated meat thermometer can, 1xbet online casino says. Use the thermometer to take temperatures in the thickest areas of the bird, such as the breast, thigh and leg. The bird is safe to serve once it reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Severns also suggests the following to keep holiday cooking efficient and 1xbet online casino safe.
• Raw turkey juice as salad dressing? No way, 1xbet online casino said. Never use the same cutting board for poultry, raw meats, eggs and vegetables without cleaning and sanitizing between projects.
• Plan your preparation by grouping similar items together to improve efficiency and 1xbet online casino safety.
"If you're doing the bird first, clear the counters and sink areas," 1xbet online casino said. "Set up your sudsy sink and a sanitation sink with bleach solution. Do all the raw bird prep and then clean and sanitize thoroughly, especially knives and cutting boards. Then move on to the veggies."
