17. Cleaning up during cooking
This tends to take longer, but you want to make sure your kitchen area is clean, especially if you are working with allergen and non-allergenic foods in the same area. Take extra steps to clean all surfaces before and after you prepare food and eat it.
It includes the dining table in your dining room. Allergenic foods are good at leaving small particles around to find their way into other foods. You won't even realize it's happening until it's too late. You do not need to disinfect the area as it could endanger all food. Just use warm soapy water. Please don't rely on hand sanitizer to keep your hands free of allergens as this doesn't kill them.
