Safety Precautions
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
A kitchen is the most dangerous room in any catering establishment. It packs open flames, hot oil, sharp knives, boiling water, gas cylinders and wet floors into one busy space, and it does so while everyone is rushing to get food out on time. The good caterer is not the one who works fastest, but the one who finishes a long shift with every worker and every guest unhurt.
In this lesson you will learn the accidents that happen most often in a kitchen and how to stop each one before it starts, the correct first aid for the injuries you cannot prevent, and how fire really works so that you can put it out with the right method instead of making it worse. You will meet the one mistake that turns a small pan fire into a fireball, and the simple piece of cloth that would have stopped it.
