10/02/2015Routine
Operator is knowledgeable and responsive. Facility is well-run, clean, and organized. Cooling issue was addressed immediately. Operator has calibrated thermometer and will monitor entire cooling process to ensure proper rate of temperature drop is achieved.
  • Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site)
    Observation: pizza sauce noted not being adequately cooled to prevent the growth of harmful bacteria. Pizza sauce was 44F after 6 hours of cooling.
    Correction: Reheat sauce to 165F, then cool 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. Coolling thick foods such a pizza sauce is best accomplished by using shallow pans (depth <2 inches), leaving trays uncovered during cooling, or using ice baths.
