Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When using knives, you should always cut
A
towards yourself
B
away from yourself
C
either
D
neither
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A rule of thumb is to “always cut away from you, and you’ll never cut yourself.” Another great truth is, “a sharp knife is a safer knife.” This gives you greater control of the blade. When a heavy force is applied, the blade often cuts deeper than intended, sometimes into your flesh.

Detailed explanation-2: -Handling a knife: Point the blade away from your body when cutting, washing, or drying a knife. Always use a cutting board. Secure your cutting board with a damp paper towel or non-slip mat. Do not use the knife while distracted.

Detailed explanation-3: -Always cut away from-never towards – yourself. Or turn your cutting board around. By the way-if your cutting board doesn’t have rubber feet, you should place it atop a damp kitchen towel to make sure it doesn’t move while you’re cutting.

Detailed explanation-4: -Train employees in the safe use of knives and safe working practices when sharpening them. Use a knife suitable for the task and for the food you are cutting. Keep knives sharp. Cut on a stable surface. Handle knives carefully when washing up. Carry a knife with the blade pointing downwards. More items •03-Aug-2021
