   The manner in which we cook our food is pretty much as significant as the manner in which we plan and store it. Insufficient cooking is a typical reason for food contamination. Cross-pollution from crude to cooked food sources, for example, from hands, hacking sheets or utensils, can likewise cause food contamination. Most food sources, particularly meat, poultry, fish and eggs, ought to be cooked completely to kill most kinds of food contamination microscopic organisms.
   Egg-based dishes like omelettes and baked egg custards need to be thoroughly cooked.
   When preparing foods that contain raw eggs, such as homemade mayonnaise, sauces like hollandaise, and desserts like tiramisu and mousse, exercise extra caution. Microorganisms present on eggshells and inside the egg can defile these sorts of food and cause food contamination.
   
   Abstain from giving food containing crude eggs to pregnant ladies, small kids, older individuals and anybody with an ongoing sickness.
   
   Sanitation and microwave cooking
   Microwaves are a speedy and helpful method for preparing food. Be that as it may, in the event that they are not utilized accurately, they can prepare food unevenly. Food may not cook completely or reach a uniform temperature of 75 °C as a result. At the point when you cook food in the microwave:
   
   Cut food into equitably estimated pieces if conceivable or put bigger or thicker things towards the external edge of the dish.
   Use microwave-safe plastic wrap or a microwave-safe lid to cover the food. This will trap the steam and advance all the more in any event, cooking.
   Turn and mix food during preparing.
   Hold on until the standing time is over before you check that the cooking is finished. Food keeps on cooking even after the microwave is switched off.
   Food cooling and storage If you need to store food for later use, cover it and store it in the refrigerator until the steam stops rising. This helps keep the food out of the temperature peril zone as quick as could be expected. Huge parts of food cool quicker when you put them into shallow plate or separation them into more modest bits.
   
   Keep food warmer than 60 °C and out of the temperature danger zone if you need to keep it warm.
   
   Under ideal circumstances, prepared food can be put away in the refrigerator for a couple of days. To keep prepared food longer, freeze the food following cooling in the ice chest.
   
   Continuously store prepared food independently from crude food, particularly crude meats, poultry and fish. To prevent raw juices from dripping onto other foods, store raw poultry and meats at the bottom of the refrigerator. Guarantee that all food is covered or fixed.
   
   Reheat food to a steaming hot temperature Reheat food to a steaming hot temperature—above 75 °C—or, ideally, boiling. The food should steam all the way through, not just at the edges. Take care while warming food in a microwave. To ensure that all of the food is heated to a temperature above 75 °C, perform the same steps as when cooking with a microwave.
