What should you NOT use to misrepresent the appearance of food

-Food additives or color additives -colored overwraps -lights

Under which of the following conditions can you hold hot food without temperature control?

-Hold the food at 135°F (57°C) or higher before removing it from temperature control. -Sell, serve, or throw out the food within four hours.

Why would you need a variance?

-Packaging fresh juice on-site for sale at a later time, unless the juice has a warning label. -Smoking food as a way to preserve it (but not to enhance flavor) -Using food additives or adding components such as vinegar to preserve or alter the food so that it no longer needs time and temperature control for safety. -Curing food. -Custom-processing animals for personal use. For example, a hunter brings a deer to a restaurant for dressing and takes the meat home for later use. -Packaging food using a reduced-oxygen packaging (ROP) method. This includes MAP, vacuum-packed, and sous vide food. Clostridium botulinum and Listeria monocytogenes are risks to food packaged in these ways. -Sprouting seeds or beans. -Offering live shellfish from a display tank.

When cooking with Pooled eggs

-Pooled eggs are eggs that are cracked open and combined in a container - Cook them promptly after mixing, or store them at 41°F (5°C) or lower. -Clean and sanitize the containers used to hold them before making a new batch.

How should you wash produce?

-Wash produce thoroughly under running water. -The water should be a little warmer than the produce. -Pay special attention to leafy greens such as lettuce and spinach. -Remove the outer leaves, and pull the lettuce or spinach completely apart and rinse thoroughly. -Certain chemicals may be used to wash fruits and vegetables. Also, produce can be treated by washing it in water containing ozone. This treatment helps control pathogens.

Reconditioning

What temperatures do pathogens grow most rapidly in

25°F and 70°F

Cool TCS food from....

35°F (57°C) to 41°F (5°C) or lower within six hours.

What is the maximum amount of time that HOT TCS food may be hot-held without temperature control?

4 hours

What is the maximum amount of time that hot TCS food may be hot-held without temperature control?

4 hours

For thawing food in the sink never let food go above_______ for longer than 4 hours

41 F

At what maximum internal temperature should cold TCS food be​ held?

41 degrees°F

What temp should you hold fresh cut produce

41°F

What is the maximum safe internal temperature when holding TCS cold food in a cooler?

41°F (5°C)

When thawing food in a cooler, keep the food's temperature at:

41°F (5°C) or lower.

What is the maximum amount of time that cold TCS food may be held without temperature control?

6 hours

Which is a necessary condition for holding COLD TCS food without temperature controls?

6 hours

When partially cooking TCS food during​ prep, the initial cooking time should not exceed

60 minutes.

When thawing frozen TCS food under running water, what should the temperature of the running water be?

70 F or lower

If food has not reached _____within _____hours, it must be reheated and then cooled again.

70; 2 hours

What information should be posted near self-service areas?

A reminder to not reuse plates and utensils

definition of a variance

A variance is a document issued by your regulatory authority that allows a regulatory requirement to be waived or changed.

When holding cold TCS food without temperature control, at what temperature must the food be thrown out instead of served?

Above 70°F (21°C)

Water Bath

After dividing food into smaller containers, place them in a clean prep sink or large pot filled with ice water. The food handler in the photo at left is cooling a container of meat sauce this way.

At a minimum, how often should food temperature be checked when holding food?

At least every four hours

Which is the best option for cooling large amounts of hot food​ quickly?

Blast chiller

Blast Chiller

Blast chillers blast cold air across food at high speeds to remove heat. They are typically used to cool large amounts of food.

What is the biggest threat to food that is ready to serve?

Contamination

Always use hot-holding equipment to reheat food.

FALSE

Ready-to-eat food that has exceeded time-temperature limits can be safely reconditioned.

FALSE

ROP fish

Frozen fish may be supplied in a reduced-oxygen packaging (ROP). This fish should usually remain frozen until ready for use

Which of these food items needs to be cooked to the highest internal cooking temperature in order to be safe?

Ground duck

What is one condition that must be met to hold hot TCS food without temperature control?

Hold the food at 135°F (57°C) or higher before removing it from temperature control.

What is one condition that must be met when holding cold TCS food without temperature control?

Making sure the food temperature does not rise above 70°F (21°C)

Which is a necessary condition for holding cold TCS food without temperature controls?

Serve the food within six hours of holding at 70°F (21°C) or lower.

Storage container

Stainless steel transfers heat away from food faster than plastic. Shallow pans let the heat from food disperse faster than deep pans.

Additives approved by your local regulatory authority can be used to add color when prepping food

Throw it out.

When do you throw out TCS foods

Throw out leftover food held at 41°F (5°C) or lower after seven days. Check the use-by date before using stored food items.

Soaking or Storing info

When soaking or storing produce in standing water or an ice-water slurry, do NOT mix different items or multiple batches of the same item.

Off-site services have additional risks that can cause food to become contaminated or time-temperature abused. One of the reasons for the increased risk is

delay from the preparation and the point of service.

held in the temperature danger zone for less than two hours.

ice paddles

ice paddles are available that can be filled with ice or with water and then frozen. Food stirred with these paddles will cool quickly. Food cools even faster when placed in an ice-water bath and stirred with an ice paddle.
