Dirt is the bane of commercial kitchens. Keep them sanitary with these tips!
Have you ever eaten out and had a bad physical reaction? If you have become ill in any way because of the food you ate at a restaurant or food vendor of any kind, then you can deduce that that establishment isn’t very sanitary. It doesn’t give that business the best look. Do you need to keep a commercial kitchen clean? Follow these tips to get happy customers!
Maintain a Personal Hygiene Standard
Personal hygiene is where cleanliness starts. One person with lots of bacteria can make any room dirtier in no time, especially when preparing drinks and dishes. Imagine how that might affect the customer! That is not a thought we want to have. Maintain a personal hygiene standard that all employees must adhere to.
Clean and Sanitize the Kitchen on a Schedule
Clean and sanitize the kitchen on a strict routine. Follow industry standards and make improvements if you think of any to your commercial kitchen cleaning and sanitation tasks. Train employees to clean and sanitize all surfaces and equipment properly.
Have Strict Pest Control
Even if your restaurant is perfectly clean, bugs and insects can still encroach on your premises, bringing in dirt and disease into your commercial kitchen with their dirty little feet. Be diligent about pest control; no one wants to buy from an establishment that has a bug problem, and no one wants to work in one either.
Manage Ingredients Wisely
Food can spoil, as you know, which means it pays to be careful in how you manage your ingredients wisely. For example, throw out ingredients that have gone bad and use items that will expire first before longer-lasting ones. Also, you want to clean up spills promptly. Wise and efficient usage of ingredients will keep bacteria and mold from forming and ensure your guests get a great, healthful meal.
