    What should you do if you have to cut vegetables and meat?

    • A.

      Use different cutting boards and clean your knife.

      Use different cutting boards

    • C.

    • D.

      Rinse the cutting board and proceed.

    Correct Answer
    A. Use different cutting boards and clean your knife.
    Explanation
    To prevent cross-contamination and ensure food safety, it is important to use different cutting boards for vegetables and meat. This is because vegetables and meat can carry different types of bacteria, and using the same cutting board can transfer bacteria from one to the other. Additionally, cleaning the knife between cutting different ingredients further reduces the risk of cross-contamination. Therefore, using different cutting boards and cleaning the knife is the best practice to maintain food hygiene.

    Oh no! You dropped a glass bottle and now it's shattered all over the ground. What do you do?

    • A.

      Tell the teacher.

    • B.

      Sweep it up with a broom and dustpan.

    • C.

      Use a wet towel to pick up the excess pieces.

    • D.

      All of the above.

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "All of the above" because when a glass bottle shatters on the ground, it is important to take multiple steps to clean up the mess and ensure safety. Telling the teacher is necessary to inform them about the accident and seek assistance if needed. Sweeping up the broken pieces with a broom and dustpan helps to remove the larger fragments. Using a wet towel to pick up the excess pieces is also important as it helps to collect any smaller shards that may not be easily visible. Combining all these actions ensures a thorough and safe cleanup process.

  • 6. 

    When you are using a saucepan, where should the handle be facing?

    • A.

      Outwards.

    • B.

      Inwards.

    • C.

      Towards another hot plate.

    • D.

      Doesn't matter.

    Correct Answer
    B. Inwards.
    Explanation
    The handle of a saucepan should be facing inwards because it helps to prevent accidents and spills. When the handle is facing inwards, it reduces the risk of accidentally knocking or bumping into the handle, which could cause the pan to tip over and spill its contents. Additionally, having the handle facing inwards also makes it easier and safer to maneuver the saucepan on the stovetop, as it allows for better control and balance while stirring or pouring.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    What do you do if there is a small grease fire?

    • A.

      Pour water over it.

    • B.

      Use a fire extinguisher.

    • C.

      Pour baking soda over it.

    • D.

      STOP, DROP, AND ROLL

    Correct Answer
    C. Pour baking soda over it.
    Explanation
    Pouring baking soda over a small grease fire is the correct action to take because baking soda can help smother the fire by depriving it of oxygen. This method is effective in extinguishing small fires caused by grease as it creates a barrier between the flames and the fuel source. Using water on a grease fire can cause the fire to spread and using a fire extinguisher may not be as effective in smothering the flames. Stop, drop, and roll is the appropriate response for a person on fire, not for extinguishing a grease fire.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    What should you avoid wearing in the kitchen?

    • A.

      Nail Polish.

    • B.

      Dangling sleeves.

    • C.

      Jewellery.

    • D.

      All of the above.

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above.
    Explanation
    In the kitchen, it is important to avoid wearing nail polish, dangling sleeves, and jewellery. Nail polish can chip off and contaminate food, while dangling sleeves can catch fire or get caught in equipment. Jewellery can also pose a risk of getting caught in equipment or falling into food. Therefore, to ensure safety and hygiene in the kitchen, it is best to avoid wearing all of the mentioned items.

  • 9. 

    Which of the following is NOT something you need to yell in the kitchen? 

    • A.

      BEHIND!

    • B.

      SLIPPERY!

    • C.

      SHARP!

    • D.

      OVEN'S OPEN!

    Correct Answer
    B. SLIPPERY!
    Explanation
    In a kitchen, it is important to communicate potential dangers or hazards to ensure the safety of everyone present. Yelling "BEHIND!" is necessary to alert others when passing behind someone who is working. Yelling "SHARP!" is important to warn others about knives or other sharp objects. Yelling "OVEN'S OPEN!" is crucial to notify others when the oven door is open and hot. However, yelling "SLIPPERY!" is not necessary in the kitchen as it does not directly relate to any specific danger or hazard that could occur in that environment.
