  Proper cooling methods used; adequate equipment for temperature control

  3-501.15 (A) Cooling shall be accomplished in accordance with the time and temperature criteria specified under § 3-501.14 by using one or more of the following methods based on the type of FOOD being cooled: (1) Placing the FOOD in shallow pans; (2) Separating the FOOD into smaller or thinner portions; (3) Using rapid cooling EQUIPMENT; (4) Stirring the FOOD in a container placed in an ice water bath; (5) Using containers that facilitate heat transfer; (6) Adding ice as an ingredient; or (7) Other effective methods. Cook line make units Per item #22, observed several TCS foods holding above 41F. After discussion with PIC, determined the items were recently prepared and placed into the make units for cold holding without properly cooling using equipment designed for rapid cooling.

  Proper cold holding temperatures

  3-501.16 (A) Except during preparation, cooking, or cooling, or when time is used as the public health control as specified under §3-501.19, and except as specified under (B) and in (C ) of this section, TIME/TEMPERATURE CONTROL FOR SAFETY FOOD shall be maintained: (2) At 5ºC (41ºF) or less. Cook line make units Observed several TCS foods holding in the top of the make units above 41F when measured with a probe thermometer. Ambient air temperatures were taken for all units using a MIN/MAX thermometer for 10 minutes each, all measuring below 41F. Observed the flip tops to be open. After discussion with PIC, determined the items were intended to be cold holding after prepping/sitting out at ambient kitchen temperature without ever being properly cooled down to or back down to 41F or below before placing in the units. PIC stated items were prepared at 10am before opening for the day.
