What is the best way to check the temperature of the food?

Use a probe thermometer
Touch the food with your hands
Estimate based on cooking time
Look at the color of the food

The correct answer is: Use a probe thermometer

Option B is not a reliable method as it can vary based on personal sensitivity to heat and does not give an accurate temperature reading. Option C is also not a reliable method as cooking time can vary depending on the size and type of food being cooked. Option D is not a reliable method as the color of food can vary and does not always indicate the internal temperature. The best and most accurate way to check the temperature of food is by using a probe thermometer. This allows for a precise reading and ensures that the food is cooked to the appropriate temperature for safety and doneness.
