FOOD SAFETY

Keeping food safe in your fridge

Keeping food chilled in the fridge slows down the growth of bacteria. Between 5°C and 63°C is called ‘the danger zone’, where bacteria on food can grow to a point where they can make you ill.

HEALTHY EATING

Most of us eat too much salt, but it's easy to cut down if your meals are packed with flavour, says safefood placement student, Emma McCarley.

"Double or triple the ingredients for extra guacamole which can be covered and refrigerated and used again."
