Food Safety Manual
For this final assignment, create a food safety manual to be used in your own home. There is a suggested table of contents listed below, but it is up to you to fully address each section.
You may add to the table of contents, but you may not delete anything.
Remember, this is for use in your own home, so it should be specific to your home. So if you are a parent of small children, you may be including different information than a single retired adult. Take into account the structure of your family, and who typically shops for, stores, prepares, serves, and consumes food in your home.
Table of Contents (this is a minimum to include)
Introduction to Food Safety
How Food can Become Contaminated in the Home Kitchen
Safe Purchasing Practices (where do you shop, what do you look for, how do you transport your groceries home)
Safe Storage Practices (how and where is your food stored, do you rotate, check package dates)
Safe Preparation Practices (who cooks, what are they wearing, what do they do – include at least 4 internal cooking temperatures and explain how to check, handwashing)
Safe Serving Practices (family style, who plates the food, parties and buffets)
