Inspector's notes
Observed small containers of cooked chicken (45*F-51*F), roasted peppers (48*F-58*F), chickpea hummus (64*F), cut lettuce (54*F), and pre-cooked pasta noodles (48*F) in lower reach in and standing side unit. Per PIC, all items out of temperature were prepped this morning, approximately 2.5-3 hours prior. All containers were covered, with hummus and roasted peppers containers double stacked and pushed to back of unit with other containers (containing non-TCS items) placed around. All cooling and cold holding equipment was observed to be functioning properly, with minimum temperatures ranging between 32*F-38*F. Per person-in-charge (PIC), food prep occurs daily, with cooked chicken cooled on a sheet pan and then portioned into containers, roasted peppers and hummus prepared at ambient room temperature, and lettuce and pasta noodles prepared from refrigeration. Discussed cooling methods with PIC. When placed in cooling or cold holding equipment, food containers in which food is being cooled shall be arranged in the equipment to provide maximum heat transfer through the container walls; and loosely covered, or uncovered if protected from overhead contamination, during the cooling period to facilitate heat transfer from the surface of the food. PIC relocated some TCS food items to walk-in and rearranged remaining containers in reach-in units to rapidly cool to 41*F at time of inspection. Corrective action: Corrected at time of inspection.
