I. Introduction (Time Frame: Day 1 – 30 minutes)

For this lesson, you will be able to select various types of chemicals for cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools, equipment and
paraphernalia. And also, you will be able to clean and sanitize kitchen tools, equipment and paraphernalia in accordance
to standard operating procedures.

Look at the picture of the different kitchen cleaning and sanitation chemicals. Can you name cleaning chemicals
found in your kitchen?

Cleaning Agents

1. Detergents – Detergents are used to wash tableware, surfaces, and

equipment. These products can penetrate soil quickly and soften it.
Examples of detergents are dishwashing liquid and automatic
dishwasher detergents.
2. Solvent cleaners – Solvent cleaners must be used periodically on
surfaces where grease has burned on. They are also often called
degreasers.
3. Acid cleaners – These cleaning agents are used periodically on
mineral deposits and other dirt that detergents cannot remove. These
cleaners are often used to remove water scale in washing machines
and steam tables.
4. Abrasive cleaners - These cleaners are used to remove heavy soil
accumulated on the surfaces that are hard to remove with
detergents. Some abrasive cleaners, like bleach, can also disinfect.

Cleaning and Sanitation

Cleaning is the process of removing the food and other types of soil (dirt) from the surface such as a dish, a glass, or a pan. This
is done with a cleaning agent. But take note, not all cleaning agents are safe to be used on any food-contact surfaces.

Sanitizing is the procedure done after washing. It is done to reduce the number of microorganisms, that have not been
removed after cleaning, to a safe level. Always remember to wash first the material to be sanitized properly before sanitizing
or else, it will not be effective. There are two methods that are commonly used in sanitizing – heat and the use of chemical
sanitizing solutions.

In cleaning and sanitizing the kitchen tools and utensils, there are two methods applied manually or mechanically. Dishwashing
is the process of washing and sanitizing dishes, glassware, flatware, pots, pans, and the like.
