Official Wording
Hot holding: minimum of 60�C (140�F) after cooking / rapid re-heating
Inspector’s Notes
Corrected During Inspection: Ensure food is held above 60�C (140�F) after cooking / rapid re-heating, Preheat the hot holding unit to at least 60�C (140�F) before placing hot foods inside of the hot holding unit
In Plain English
Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
