Critical: Cooling* (corrected on site) Observation: Quiche (made 6 hours ago) has not been cooled quickly enough to prevent the potential growth of harmful bacteria.
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.
Critical: Cooling* Correction:
Critical: Food - Potentially Hazardous Food - Cold Holding* (corrected on site) Observation: Cooked eggs (44°F) and cut melons (44°F) at the make table are at improper cold holing temperatures
Correction: Relocate food to quickly chill it to 41°F. Cold hold all potentially hazardous foods (PHF)/Time-Temperature Control for Safety (TCS) foods at 41°F or below. The foods were moved to the walk-in for quick cooling.
