3-501.14(B) Quickly cool TCS foods that are prepared from room temperature ingredients. Food must be to 45F within 4 hours. -P
Observed a large bin of prepped salad lettuce recorded at 50F (see chart). PIC stated lettuce was prepped earlier in the morning with active cooling starting at 9:30 AM. Noticed lettuce at 2:00 PM. Thus, lettuce failed to meet 4 hour cooling time. CDI- Lettuce was discarded. PIC stated normal practice is to cool prepped lettuce in about 5-6 shallow tubs with an open cover and active tossing. That practice should suffice. |
