Grandma's Secret Tip
Grandma's Secret Tip
After working with raw chicken and other raw poultry and meats, Grandma would thoroughly wash her hands with hot soapy water and do the same with the utensils and cutting board that came into contact with the raw meat. These good habits helped prevent the spread of harmful bacterial growth around the kitchen.
