Turn the handles of cookware ____
A
center or middle
B
over side counter
C
over back burner
D
over front edge
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To keep children and cooks safe, keep pot and pan handles inward away from the edge of the stove. In doing this, do not place handles over an open flame or heated burner while you are cooking. Do not wear blouse clothes or loose sleeves that may catch fire when leaning over the stove or reaching to a back burner.

Detailed explanation-2: -Use the stove’s back burners whenever possible and turn pot handles inward to reduce the risk of pots being knocked over. Keep potholders, oven mitts, wooden utensils, and other items that can burn away from your stovetop. Clean food and grease from the oven and stovetop once it has cooled.

Detailed explanation-3: -Make sure when cooking that the handles of your pots and pans are turned inward. This will be safer than someone knocking into them resulting in your food flying and burning you. Always have potholders or oven mitts close by when handling anything on the stove top or oven.

Detailed explanation-4: -Better balance and weight distribution depend on the handle’s angle; when too acute, the pot feels considerably heavier than its true weight. The more parallel the handle is to the pot rim, the more leverage you have and the lighter the pan feels in your hand.
