Cooking Safety
Check foods to see that they are cooked to the United States Depart-
ment of Agriculture's recommended temperatures.
Temp Food
145˚F (63˚C) Fish
160˚F (71˚C) Pork, ground beef/veal/lamb, egg dishes
165˚F (74˚C) For leftover, ready-to-reheat refrigerated, and deli
and carry-out “fresh” food. Whole, pieces and

To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer in a thick or dense
area away from fat or bone. NEVER leave the thermometer in the food
during cooking, unless it is approved for microwave use.

ALWAYS use potholders to prevent burns when handling utensils
that are in contact with hot food. Enough heat from the food can
transfer through utensils to cause skin burns.
