Stop Washing Raw Chicken Wrong! Avoid Bird Flu, Typhoid with These Cleaning Tips

• Washing raw chicken with only water is insufficient; it doesn't kill bacteria like Salmonella and Campylobacter, which can cause serious illness.
• Bacteria spread from packaging; remove chicken, wipe with paper towel, then wash with warm water and turmeric.
• Soak chicken in a solution of vinegar and lemon for 10-15 minutes to eliminate bacteria and odors, then rinse with cold water.
• Alternatively, soak chicken in salt water for 10-15 minutes; salt's antibacterial properties kill germs and remove dirt.
• Always remove chicken skin, maintain hand hygiene, and thoroughly clean utensils, cutting boards, and countertops to prevent bacterial spread.
