The U.S. Fire Administration reports that cooking fires are the most common type of fires experienced in U.S. households and these increase on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. Therefore, to avoid fires related to cooking, you should follow these tips:
* Stay in the kitchen when you are frying, grilling, or broiling food. If you leave the kitchen for even a short period of time, turn off the stove.
* If you are simmering, baking, roasting, or boiling food, check it regularly, remain in the home while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you that you're cooking.
