Students enrolled at HOPE Academy, our program specifically designed for young adults (18-30) participated in a food safety class! Students learned many important skills in order to participate in a cooking class later this month.

Some tips included: how to properly carry a knife, utilizing the kitchen appliances such as: the oven, dishwasher, dish station and laundry machine.

Students were also taught proper hygiene which include washing hands, wearing safe clothing, gloves and hairnets. Also, differentiating the colored cutting boards and the proper dishes to use when cooking. They are looking forward to their cooking class!
