Step two is if you are cooking any raw meats, poultry,seafood, and eggs to keep them away from one another but also from ready to eat foods.You dont want to cross contaminate any foods.Step three is while you are cooking the raw meats, poultry,seafood and eggsto make sure to cook and the right temperature.Here are some tempertures you need to know, Ground beef ( pork,beef,lamb) 160 F,Fresh beef 145F,Poultry 165F, Eggs cook until yolk and white are firm, and Fish 145F. The fourth step is to Chill the food.Bacteria in any food can double in 20 mins. so make sure to refrigerate the food quickly.Cold temperatures keep bacteria from growing and you don't want to end up sick.

Making Homemade delicious Brownies.
Today we are going to make Homemade Brownies. Let's get started with what you need to have first, You need to get started with having ½ c and 2 tbsp. of flour , 1/2 tsp. of baking powder, ½ tsp. of salt, ⅓ c of cocoa, and 1 c and 2 tbsp. of sugar yes that is a lot of sugar. To make these measurements correct I had to level it off with a knife you want to do this because you don't want to put too much or too little. Before you start anything wash your hands and preheat the oven to 350 degrees. You combine all of the flour, baking powder , and salt into a container we used a cup for this. The next layer you add is the cocoa and the sugar (Make sure to pack down after each layer you add before adding the next). After we put these items in the cup we put them in a mixing bowl. As I did that someone in my group melted 3 tsp. of butter in the microwave ( do this for 8 sec. per time) then cracked two eggs into a separate bowl to make sure there were no egg shells.We added the butter and eggs into the bowl and mixed it with a whisk. It gets pretty thick as your stirring and as you are its suppose to be liquidly but if some reason it looks dry add a little bit of water to it.Countine mixing for 2 mins.Then pour the brownie mix into the pan, make sure that it is even on each side. After you place the pan into the oven using a oven met you don't want to burn yourself place the pan on the lower rack. Cook the brownies for 20 mins. To pass the time away my group washed dishes that we had used. When the timer goes off check the brownies with a toothpick if it has nothing on it then it is done but if there is some batter on the toothpick the brownies are not done.Our brownies were not done we cooked them for about 5 more mins.After the 5 mins had passed we checked with the toothpick again they were finally done.I pulled them and let the brownies cool before cutting them and eating.I let the brownies cool for about 3mins. then cut them into little squares and served them.They were so good i ate 4 of them.I hope this helps you make homemade brownies and your are as delicious as mine!
