FOOD STORAGE

Food safety guidelines apply where food is prepared, cooked, stored, displayed or moved. The critical factors for food quality and safety are temperature and pH. Temperature is the single most important factor which keeps pathogens like bacteria under control.

CHILLED FOOD STORAGE

Keep frozen food at minus 15° C. or lower in a freezer. This will prevent any bacteria from growing. For storing foods for shorter periods keep it in a fridge at 5° C. or lower.

COOKED/HOT FOOD STORAGE

Sometimes food is pre cooked and offered for sale hot. It has to be kept at 60° C. or above to prevent bacteria from multiplying while it is on display or stored. It is important to check that the food is at 60° C. or above right through and not just on the surface.
