• Crítica Alimentos a una temperatura insegura
  Los alimentos no se mantenían lo suficientemente fríos o calientes, no se enfriaban con la rapidez necesaria, o no se cocinaban o recalentaban a la temperatura correcta. Las bacterias crecen rápido en la "zona de peligro" entre 41 °F y 135 °F (5 °C a 57 °C), por lo que esta es una de las revisiones de seguridad alimentaria más importantes.
  Redacción oficial (en inglés): Proper cooling methods
  Nota del inspector (en inglés): Observed full covered containers of pasta, stacked on food prep counter measured between 65-79F. Measured full trays of onions, sliced cooked beef, mushrooms (all items more than 3 inches high) on a rack in walk in cooler that was prepped around 9a-10a. [CA] After heating or hot holding, Potentially Hazardous Foods (PHFs) shall be cooled rapidly from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours and from 70°F to 41°F within 4 hours. Approved cooling methods include: 1) Placing the food in shallow pans 2) Separating the food into thinner or smaller portions. 3) Using rapid cooling equipment (Ex. blast chiller) 4) Using containers that facilitate heat transfer (ex. stainless steel) 5) Adding ice as an ingredient. 6) Using ice paddles 7) Using an ice bath and stirring frequently 8) Accordance with a HACCP plan. Cooling foods shall have enough space around the containers for cold air to circulate, be loosely covered, or uncovered and stirred as frequently needed to evenly cool. Properly cool these items using shallow containers, using no more than 2 inches for solid foods. Provide an additional tall baking rack (with wheels) to cool food using baking sheets so that it can be located inside or outside of the walk in, along with re-usable ice sheets and ice wands. It is highly recommended to provide a Blast Chiller to properly cool foods down. [COS] All food was divided and placed on shallow containers with an ice bath or on additional baking sheets and located on top shelf in walk in.
