Food Safety tips: 

  • Wash hands with soap and warm water for 20 seconds. Clean all countertops and equipment used for food preparation. 
  • Gently rinse all produce under cool running water. Use a clean vegetable brush to scrub firm produce. 
  • Use separate equipment for handling raw food and cooked food. 
  • Put leftovers away within 2 hours or sooner if they are in a warm location. Reheat leftovers to an internal temperature of 74°C (165°F). Discard uneaten leftovers after they have been reheated. 

Preparation:

  • Sauté ginger, garlic, celery, and green onions in 1 tbsp oil.
