#22 — Proper Cold Holding TemperaturesPriority3-501.16

Inspector's notes

Observed a container of loaded potato salad inside of a deli refrigerator with an internal temperature as measured using a probe thermometer of 51°F. In discussion with the person in charge, the potato salad had been out at a sampling station during the morning. It was determined that the food had been out of temperature for almost 4 hours when the internal temperature was assessed and the food was embargoed at time of inspection (see embargo form). Observed the sampling station where the potato salad was being sampled out to customers. It was observed that the ice bath that the potato salad was sitting in did not have enough ice nor did it have water. Person in charge added cold water and more ice to the ice bath container and fully submerged the container in the ice water bath so that the ice water fully surrounds the container. Except during preparation, cooking, cooling or when time is used as a control all TCS foods must be maintained at 41°F or below. Eggs not treated to destroy Salmonellae can be stored in equipment that maintains an ambient air temperature of 45°F or below. Corrective Action: Corrected at time of inspection.

Maricopa County issues a separate permit for each kitchen rather than for each restaurant name, so large properties hold several. Each is inspected and scored on its own. The county does not publish which kitchen serves which venue.
