When making omelets how should you handle the eggs to keep safe?

1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after handling eggs. This will help prevent the spread of bacteria.

2. Use clean, sanitized utensils and work surfaces. This will also help prevent the spread of bacteria.

3. Do not crack eggs on the side of the bowl. This can introduce bacteria into the egg. Crack the eggs on a flat surface, such as a plate or countertop.

4. Inspect the eggs for cracks or damage before using them. Cracked or damaged eggs should be discarded, as they may be contaminated with bacteria.

5. Cook the eggs thoroughly. This will kill any bacteria that may be present. Eggs should be cooked until the yolk is firm and the whites are set.

6. Refrigerate leftovers promptly. Leftover omelets should be refrigerated within two hours of cooking. They should be eaten within two days.

By following these steps, you can help to keep yourself safe when handling eggs for omelets.
