List some things that chase and his staff should consider as they conduct a review of the new storage area.

- determine where meat, poultry, and seafood will be stored. Ideally they will want to store it in the coldest part of the unit, away from the door. - ensure that there is at least one air temperature measuring device in each storage unit. For coolers and freezers , the device must be located in the warmest part of the unit - install cold curtains in walk in coolers and freezers to help maintain temps in the units. - purchase open shelvings for walkin coolers and freezers. This will help ensure good airflow in the units. The shelving should also ensure that food is stored at least 6 inches from the floor. -identify the designated storage location for each stored product. This includes both food and nonfood items, such as paper napkins and single use cups. - purchase storage containers intended for food. - identify the storage location for dirty linen - establish a procedure for the correct storage order for raw and ready to eat food. - determine how to rotate food using the Fifa method.

Storage problem at enricos

- food handler at restaurant failed to shut the door to walk in freezer. Could have warmed interior of the freezer and allowed products to thaw. - alyce placed the case of sour cream into an already overloaded refrigerator. This could prevent good airflow and make the unit work harder to stay cold - the stock pot of soup should not have been stored on the floor of the cooler. Food must be stored at least 6 inches off floor. - Alice should not have stored the fresh salmon above the ready to eat soup. Salmon could drip fluids into soup cross contaminating it. Ready to eat food must always be stored above raw meat, poultry and seafood. - Alice should not have stored the ground beef near the door, which is the warmest part of the unit. Raw meat, poultry, and seafood should be stored in the coldest part of the unit. - Mary was lining the shelving with aluminum foil. Can restrict airflow in unit.

What is recommended top to bottom order for storing the following food in the same cooler: raw trout, an uncooked beef roast, raw chicken, pecan pie and raw ground beef.

- pecan pie - raw trout - uncooked beef roast - raw ground beef - raw chicken

Preventing cross contamination - Containers

-Store food in containers intended for food. - use containers that are durable, leakproof, and able to be sealed or covered. - never use empty food containers to store chemicals - never put food in empty chemical containers. - wrap or cover all food correctly. Leaving food uncovered can lead to cross contamination.

Preventing cross contamination - Supplies

-store all items in designated storage areas. -store items away from walls and at least six inches (15 centimeters) off the floor. - store single use items (sleeves of single use cups, single use gloves) in original packaging.

Storing food at correct Temperatures. Guidelines to keep food safe

-store tcs food at an internal temp of 41f (5c) or lower, or 135f (57c) or higher. Randomly sample the internal temp of stored food using a calibrated therm on a regular basis. -store meat, poultry, seafood and dairy items in the coldest part of the unit away from the door. -store frozen food at temps that keep it frozen. - make sure storage units have at least one air temperature measuring device. It must be accurate to within 3f degrees or 1.5c. Must be located in warmest part of refrigerated units and coldest part of hot holding units. Hanging thermometer common type used in coolers. Check cooler and freezer temps often. - do not overload coolers or freezers. Storing too many food items prevents good airflow and makes the units work harder to stay cold. Be aware that frequent opening of the cooler lets warm air inside which can affect food safety. - consider using cold curtains in walk in coolers and freezers to help maintain temps. - use open shelving. Do not line shelves with aluminum foil, sheet pans, or paper. This restricts circulation of cold air in unit. - monitor food temps in coolers regularly. Randomly sample the temp of stored food to verify that the cooler is working. If food not at correct temp, throw it out. - defrost freezers regularly. They are most efficient when free of frost. Move food to other freezer while defrosting.

Rotation

Must be rotated while in storage to maintain quality and limit growth of pathogens. Rotated so items with earliest use by or expiration dates are used b4 those with later dates.

General storage guidelines - date marking

Refrigerations slows growth of most bacteria, but some grow well at refrigeration temp. When refrig for Lon periods, bacteria can grow enough to cause illness. Ready to eat tcs foods must include date markings if held longer then 24hrs indicating when food must be sold, eaten or thrown out. Ready to eat tcs food can be stored for only 7 days if held at 41f (5c) or lower. Food discarded after that date. Count begins day food was prepared or commercial container was opened. Some write date prepped others use by date. Commercially processed food. Sometimes will have use by date that is less than 7 days from date container was opened. Container should be marked with this use by date as long as based on food safety. Combining food - with different use by dates, discard date of fish should be based on the earliest use by date of any food items involved Example:

Preventing cross contamination - Storage order

Starts with wrapping or covering food. - store raw meat, poultry, and seafood separately from ready to eat food. If raw and ready to eat food cannot be stored separately, store ready to eat food above raw meat, poultry, and seafood. Prevent juices from raw food from dripping onto ready to eat food. - raw meat, poultry and seafood can be stored with or above ready to eat food in a freezer if all items have been commercially processed and packaged. Frozen food that is being thawed in coolers must also be stored below ready to eat food. -store raw meat, poultry and seafood in coolers in the following top to bottom order. Seafood Whole cuts of beef and pork Ground meat and ground fish Whole and ground poultry This order based on minimum internal cooking temp of each food with food requiring the highest internal cooking temp at the bottom. - as an exception ground meat and ground fish can be stored above whole cuts of beef and pork. Make sure packaging keeps out pathogens and chemicals. Also must not leak.

Storage - cross contamination?

Store items to prevent cross contamination. Store only in containers intended for food. Keep raw meat, poultry and seafood separate from ready to eat food. If raw and ready to eat food cannot be stored separately, store ready to eat food above raw meat, poultry and seafood.
