Potential Risks
Ways to Reduce Risk
1
Cover food and ice when not in use to protect against contamination.
2
Avoid direct contact with food by using proper utensils. Use a scoop to get ice and keep it contaminant-free.
3
Maintain safe temperatures: hold cold foods at or below 41ËšF (4ËšC) and hot foods above 135ËšF (51ËšC) during service.
4
Use pans that keep food cold, such as ColdFest® pans, without the use of messy and possibly contaminated ice.
