3-501.15 Quickly cool foods. Use methods such as open/vented shallow pans, large ice baths and active stirring. Cold air must flow around product to remove the heat. -Pf. -Observed edamame cooling in the lowboy in large plastic containers, stacked and covered tightly with lids. When TCS foods are cooling in the RIC or lowboy, ensure the containers are uncovered to allow for proper cold air flow. -CDI- Because edamame was within its 6-hour cooling timeframe, PIC immediately uncovered edamame at start of inspection and moved to the tall reach-in cooler. By end of inspection, edamame was observed cooling at sufficient rate.
