Hepatitis A virus can be effectively inactivated by cooking food at a temperature of 185°F (85°C) for at least one minute. Most cooking methods that reach this temperature will eliminate the virus. It's important to ensure that food is cooked evenly and thoroughly to achieve this temperature throughout. Always use a food thermometer to verify that the right temperature has been reached.
