Why must raw and cooked knives be used separately?

Raw food (raw fish, raw meat, vegetables, etc.) ) is often contaminated by germs, parasite eggs and other dirt. Therefore, don't let the knife for cutting cooked food touch the knife for cutting raw food. At the same time, separate the utensils for holding and handling raw and cooked food. If there is only one set of utensils, raw food and cooked food can also be separated, that is, the utensils for holding and cutting raw food can be scalded with boiling water or washed with hot alkali in time, and then used for holding and cutting cooked food.

The separation of raw and cooked materials includes five aspects: 1, raw and cooked materials must be separated; 2. Raw and cooked vegetable blocks must be separated; 3, cut raw and cooked tools must be separated; 4. Raw and cooked tableware must be separated; 5, freezer reserves must be cooked separately. As long as one aspect is not done, the dishes will have a 25% chance of being contaminated, which is very terrible for food safety.
