Why are clean utensils necessary while preparing food?
Clean utensils are an important part of food hygiene. Washing them removes dirt, harmful microorganisms, grease, and residues of previously prepared food. This reduces the chance that pathogens will enter the new food and cause food-borne illness. Clean utensils do not change the food's colour, sweetness, or energy value; their main purpose is to prevent contamination and protect health.
