Proper hot and cold holding temperatures
Inspector’s notes
Measured the following PHFs holding between 47F - 48F in 3 door cold top for less than 4 hours: shredded cheese, diced tomatoes and pepperoni. [CA] Maintain all PHFs cold held at or below 41F.
In plain English
Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
