Thanksgiving is only a few days away. By now many families are preparing for the big day by plotting out the cooking of the traditional Thanksgiving Turkey. Whether you are deep frying the turkey or just baking it in the oven there is always risk in doing something that is not a daily routine. I recently came across a great article written by the Oregon Chapter of the Red Cross. They give these seven tips for safe cooking:- Keep potholders and food wrappers at least three feet away from heat sources while cooking
- Wear tighter fitting clothing with shorter sleeves when cooking
- Make sure all stoves, ovens, and ranges have been turned off when you leave the kitchen
- Set timers to keep track of turkeys and other food items that require extended cooking times
- Turn handles of pots and pans on the stove inward to avoid accidents
- Follow all manufacturer guidelines regarding the appropriate use of appliances
- After guests leave, designate a responsible adult to walk around the home making sure that all candles and smoking materials are extinguished
