Food safety is crucial - it is so easy to mess up in the kitchen and it can have some serious repercussions. From England's The Independent:
GWYNETH PALTROW'S RECIPES COULD GIVE YOU FOOD POISONING, STUDY FINDS
Gwyneth Paltrow has shared some questionable advice in her time – in the last few months alone, she’s suggested we put stone eggs in our vaginas and burn our bras to get over our exes, as well as sharing health advice from a man who talks to ghosts.
But now academics are criticizing Paltrow for the potentially dangerous cooking advice in her recipe book, My Father’s Daughter.
According to experts, her chicken recipes could put people at risk of salmonella and campylobacter because she doesn’t give a final temperature that the dishes should reach.
Paltrow is not the only one guilty of this though.
The researchers analysed 29 cookbooks and found that less than nine per cent of them included information on the temperatures dishes should reach before being consumed.
Many of the cookbooks were by celebrities, and two of Paltrow’s were found to contain dangerous health advice.
I always use a thermometer and a timer when cooking - even if it is a recipie that I have done before. Always check.
