Raw meat is bought for future use, for processing, freezing whole or in steaks. This is not the most important point.
Much more important is the correct processing of meat before cooking or storing it. Let's figure out whether it can be washed before putting it in the freezer or frying.
Despite the fact that meat and dairy products undergo quality control before they appear on the shelves, bacteria still live on them.
Therefore, it is simply impossible to do without preliminary washing before cooking.
And after this, you must not forget to tidy up the surfaces where the meat has been lying, as well as the kitchen sink and your hands.
But there is no need to wash meat before freezing, especially if it is store-bought product or poultry.
This is usually done under running water in the kitchen sink. But this is wrong.
Bacteria may spread along with splashes across the work surface.
It is best to fill a bowl with water and wash the meat away from other food products.
