The kitchen contains different cookware and various items homeowners store in them, and they can potentially cause trouble for people working in them or merely passing through them. However, there are a few kitchen safety tips that can help in preventing any accidents.
Keep the Pot Holders, Dish Towels, and Oven Mitts From the Stove
Keep any flammable material, including pot holders, dish towels, and oven mitts from the stove as they can easily catch fire. Should anything in the kitchen burn, it is wise to have a fire extinguisher nearby.
Store the knives and other cutting tools on a rack or a drawer
Keep your knives and other cutting tools far from the reach of children. Use either a rack or a drawer on an elevated platform that’s convenient for you to store your knives in.
There are other safety tips available, including cleaning spills, keeping temperature-sensitive foods from lingering, and having emergency numbers at hand. To know more about the different safety tips, see this infographic by Mr. Cabinet Care.
