University of Illinois college of agriculture, sug gests that we analyze work sched ules. Allow enough time to take care of meal preparation and to do It safely. Then study habits and Irectices and work for improve lent. Take time to cover your hand with a dry cloth before opening A steaming kettle or roaster. Re store the cover away from you to pftrmit the steam to escape away from your face and body. Make it a fule to use a dry padded cloth to lift any hot dish or utensil.
