Comments
Ensure that all employees are properly trained regarding cooling and re-heating procedures.
1. Re-heating: Foods shall reach 165 degrees F within two hours. Recommend using the stove-top. Use a metal stem thermometer to guarantee internal temps.
2. Cooling: Foods shall be cooled from 135 degrees F to 70 degrees F within 2 hours; and from 70 degrees F to 41 degrees F within four hours. This can be accomplished by using shallow pans (uncovered) in the walk-in cooler. Ice can also be used to accelerate the cooling process.
