Don't be Barefooted 

Wearing something that closes your toes helps you avoid a lot of kitchen mishaps including spilled oil and dropped knives.

Don't Wear Loose Sleeves

Loose sleeves might get caught in the way of a flame or get dipped into the dishes you cook so it's better to don fitted sleeves.

Remember To Wash

Wash your hands, the veggies you want to cook, the fruits you use and the utensils you cook in. Any residual might lead to infections.

Mind Your Pan 

Always make sure your pan holder is facing the stove top. It makes sure the pan doesn't overturn when you move in a hurry.
