​We feel so comforted at home that we usually overlook accidents that may happen inside. It can be damaged old electrical circuits or knives left on the kitchen table recklessly. The kitchen is actually prone to mishaps, especially when left untidy. For houses that have a small space between the kitchen and the dining area, the more it needs proper care. Here are some tricks and tips on keeping the cooking and kitchen tools safe and clean.
​Knives Precautions
Kitchen knives are one of the most dangerous cooking tools that you should not neglect. The sharply pointed item is never safe in the hands of children.
  • Too many knives are not necessary. You only need a straight-edged 8-inch to cut most food. For roasts and thick bread, a 10-inch long serrated knife will do the job.
  • Knives become dull through time, and it is best to keep it sharp. Keep sharpening steel for it.
  • Keep the knives lifespan long by washing it on hot water with detergent. Always towel dry immediately after washing it. Reminder to have the tip down on the sink.
  • Store in a knife block or have a magnet bar that is out of reach of children.

Pots, Pans, and Chopping Boards
Clean kitchen tools and wares are needed to ensure the safety of the food you eat.
  • Cutting boards should be made of hard maple or dishwasher-safe items.
  • Have at least two cutting boards. One of which should be for cutting raw meats, fish, and poultry only.
  • To prevent food poisoning, ensure to wash the chopping board right after using it.
  • For safety measure, put a slightly wet dishcloth under the board when you use it so that it won’t slide around as you cut.
  • Pots and pans with heavy materials are preferable because they can distribute heat well, but is hard to lift. It is okay to have lightweight cookware.
  • Pots should always have two handles. Single-handed pots are harder to lift.

Aside from the kitchen and cooking tools, some chemicals are also stored in some kitchen cabinets or under the sink. Provide safety locks for it to make sure that children at home won’t stumble upon it by accident.

Some parents like to bake with their children. Before you do, check with your pediatrician first if your child’s motor skills can handle even the light work.

Home is where children are taught first of the things they later develop outside. Keeping a safe and secure house is a necessity. At Arnold, Bruce & Doerfler Insurance, our mission is to ensure that we protect are clients and offer them policies that they can afford.
