What should you do after using a food thermometer?
Online Answer
Immediately after each use, wash the probe of food thermometers with hot, soapy water, and wipe down the rest of the thermometer so grease doesn't build up. For candy thermometers, clip them onto a pot of boiling water to boil off any caramel or sugary residue.
