Chlorine concentration in dish machine measured at 100 ppm.
Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site) Observation: Homemade marinara noted not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria: the pots of marinara in the walk-in were cooked yesterday and the internal temperature was measured at 52-53°F .
Correction: Cool potentially hazardous foods from 135°F to 70°F within 2 hours and within a total of 6 hours from 135°F to 41°F. A longer time for cooling allows an ideal situation for bacterial growth. This has been shown to be the major contributing factor in many foodborne illnesses.
Cooling Methods Observation: The methods used for cooling marinara and cooked chicken were not adequate.
Correction: Cool foods by the following methods: 1. Placing food in shallow pans 2. Separating food into smaller thinner portions 3. Using rapid chill 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 7. Any other method that can effectively accomplish cooling.
Critical: Date Marking - Ready-to-Eat - Potentially Hazardous Food - Date Marking* Observation: The prepared ready-to-eat (RTE) tuna slad in the refrigeration unit is not properly dated for disposition.
Correction: Mark the name and "consume by" date on the container of RTE foods at the time of preparation if the food is to be held for more than 24 hours. If the food is held at 41°F or below the food shall be served or sold within 7 calendar days. Some harmful bacteria continue to grow even at refrigeration temperatures so limiting the amount of time in storage limits the amount of growth allowed for these bacteria. Correct today.
