Include food safety in your party plans
If you're planning a party, put food safety at the top of your to-do list: 1. Leave food sitting out no longer than two hours. 2. Keep hot foods hot with a buffet server or warming dish. Periodically check the temperature of the food with a food thermometer. 3. Keep cold foods cold by placing the serving dish in a bowl of ice. 4. Choose serving containers carefully. Metal insulates heat and cold better than glass does. Save your decorative dishes for goodies that are safe at room temperature, such as nuts and other snack foods.
