PROPER COOLING TIME AND TEMPERATURE

Inspector’s notes

TCS food requiring refrigeration not rapidly cooled to an internal temperature of 5°C (41°F) or below. (jollof rice cooked yesterday temping around 60 degrees F)

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.
