Detailed explanation-1: -Summary. Cook food properly – to at least 75 °C or hotter. Use a thermometer to check the temperature of cooked foods. If you use a microwave, check that the food is cooked evenly throughout.
Detailed explanation-2: -A food thermometer can be used to check food is cooked thoroughly, food should be 75°C or above in the thickest part. Some foods change colour when they are cooked so you can check this too. Always check your food is steaming hot in the middle. Make sure frozen vegetables are cooked before you eat them.
Detailed explanation-3: -Always reheat food until it is steaming hot all the way through (you should only do this once). Do not put food into hot holding without reheating it properly first. Check that reheated food is steaming hot all the way through.
