The flow of food: Preparation.

QuestionAnswer
When prepping food you should: Only remove as much food from the cooler as you can prep in a short period of time.​ This limits time-temperature abuse ​ Return prepped food to the cooler or cook it as quickly as possible.​
Food and Color Additives:​ Only use additives approved by your local regulatory authority.​ Never use more additives than are allowed by law ​ Do not sell produce treated with sulfites before it was received in the operation. ​
Always Present Food Honestly:​ Do not use the following to misrepresent the appearance of food​ Food additives or color additive​ Colored overwraps​ Lights​ Food not presented honestly must be thrown out​
Corrective Actions:​ When it is handled by staff who have been restricted or excluded from the operation due to illness​ When it has exceeded the time and temperature requirements designed to keep food safe​
Four Methods for Thawing Food​ Thaw food in a cooler, keeping its temperature at 41°F (5°C) or lower ​ Submerge food under running water at 70°F (21°C) or lower​ Never let the temperature of the food go above 41°F (5°C) or lower for longer than four hours ​
Produce:​ Make sure produce does not touch surfaces exposed to raw meat, seafood, or poultry.​ Wash it thoroughly under running water before:​ Cutting​ Cooking​ Combining with other ingredients​
Produce: continued​ Produce can be washed in water containing ozone to sanitize it​ Check with your local regulatory authority ​ When soaking or storing produce in standing water or an ice-water slurry, do not mix:​
Produce: continued​ Refrigerate and hold sliced melons, ​ cut tomatoes, and cut leafy greens at ​ 41°F (5°C) or lower​ Do NOT serve raw seed sprouts if primarily serving a high-risk population​ ​
Eggs and egg mixtures:​ Handle pooled eggs (if allowed) with care: ​ Cook promptly after mixing or store at 41°F (5°C) or lower ​ Consider using pasteurized shell eggs or egg products when prepping dishes that need little or no cooking​
Eggs for high-risk populations:​ Use pasteurized shell eggs if eggs ​ will be pooled​ Use pasteurized eggs or egg ​ products when serving raw or undercooked dishes​ Unpasteurized shell eggs can be ​ used if the dish will be cooked all the way through (i.e., omelets, cakes)​
Salads containing TCS food:​ Make sure leftover TCS ingredients (i.e., pasta, chicken, potatoes) have been handled safely by ensuring that they were: ​ Cooked, held, and cooled correctly​ Stored for less than 7 days at 41°F (5°C) ​ or lower​
Ice:  Never use ice as an ingredient if it was used to keep food cold.​ Transfer ice using clean and sanitized containers and scoops.​ Never hold ice in containers that held chemicals, or raw meat, seafood, or poultry.​
Ice: continued​ Store ice scoops outside ice machines in a clean, protected location​ Never use a glass to scoop ice or touch ice with hands​
You need a variance if prepping food in these ways:​ Packaging fresh juice on-site for sale at a later time, unless the juice has a warning label.​ Smoking food to preserve it but not to ​ enhance flavor Curing food​
You need a variance if prepping food in these ways: continued​ Packaging food using a reduced-oxygen packaging (ROP) method​ Sprouting seeds or beans​ Offering live shellfish from a display tank​ Custom-processing animals for personal use (i.e. dressing a deer)​
When cooking TCS food, the internal portion must:​ Reach the required minimum ​ internal temperature​ Hold that temperature for a specific amount of time​
When checking temperatures:​ Pick a thermometer with a probe that is the correct size for the food.​ Check the temperature in the thickest part of the food​ Take at least two readings in different locations​
Minimum internal cooking temperature:​ Poultry—whole or ground chicken, turkey or duck​ Stuffing made with fish, meat, or poultry​ Stuffed meat, seafood, poultry, or pasta​ Dishes that include previously cooked, TCS ingredients​
Minimum internal cooking temperature:​ Ground meat—beef, pork, and other meat​ Injected meat—including brined ham and flavor-injected roasts​ Mechanically tenderized meat​ Ratites including ostrich and emu​
Minimum internal cooking temperature:​ 145°F (63°C) for 15 seconds​ Seafood—including fish, shellfish, and crustaceans​ Steaks/chops of pork, beef, veal, and lamb​ Commercial raised game​ Shell eggs that will be served immediately​ ​
Minimum internal cooking temperature:​ 145°F (63°C) for 4 minutes​ Roasts of pork, beef, veal, and lamb​ Alternate cooking times/temperatures​ 130°F (54°C) 112 minutes​ 131°F (55°C) 89 minutes​ 133°F (56°C) 56 minutes​ 135°F (57°C) 36 minutes​ 136°F (58°C) 28 minutes​
Minimum internal cooking temperature:​ 135°F (57°C) Fruit, vegetables, grains (rice, pasta), and legumes (beans, refried beans) that will be hot-held for service​ ​
Minimum internal cooking temperature:​ 165°F (74°C) Meat​ Seafood​ Poultry​ Eggs​
Guidelines for Microwave Cooking:​ Cover food to prevent the surface from drying out​ Rotate or stir it halfway through cooking so heat reaches the food more evenly​ Let it stand for at least 2 minutes after cooking to let the food temperature even out​
If partially cooking meat, seafood, poultry, or eggs or dishes containing these items: Never cook the food longer than ​ 60 minutes during initial cooking.​ Cool the food immediately after ​ initial cooking.​ Freeze or refrigerate the food after cooling it.​
If your menu includes raw or undercooked TCS items, you must:​ Note it on the menu next to the items​ Asterisk the item​ Place a footnote at the menu bottom indicating the item is raw, undercooked, or contains raw or undercooked ingredient
If your menu includes raw or undercooked TCS items, you must:​ Advise customers who order this food of the increased risk of foodborne illness​ Post a notice in the menu​ Provide this information using brochures, table tents, or signs​
The FDA advises against offering these items on a children’s menu if they are raw or undercooked: Meat​ Poultry​ Seafood​ Eggs​ ​
Never serve:​ Raw seed sprouts​ Raw or undercooked eggs, meat, or seafood​ Over-easy eggs​ Raw oysters on the half shell​ Rare hamburgers​
What happens If you cool food from 135˚F to 70˚F (57˚C to 21˚C) ​ in less than 2 hours: Use the remaining time to cool it to 41˚F (5˚C) or lower​ The total cooling time cannot be longer than 6 hours​
Before cooling food, start by reducing its size:​ Cut larger items into smaller pieces​ Divide large containers of food into smaller containers or shallow pans​
What are some Methods for Cooling Food Safely and Quickly Place food in an ice-water bath​ Stir it with an ice paddle​ Place it in a blast chiller​
When storing food for further cooling:​ Loosely cover food containers before storing them​ Food can be left uncovered if protected from contamination​ Storing uncovered containers above other food, especially raw seafood, meat, and poultry, will help prevent cross-contamination​ ​
Food Reheated for Immediate Service​ can.. Can be reheated to any temperature if it was cooked and cooled correctly​
Food Reheated for Hot-Holding​ Must be reheated to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for 15 seconds within 2 hours​ Reheat commercially processed and packaged ready-to-eat food to an internal temperature of at least 135°F (57°C
