asaasas

ready to eat

Any food product that does not need additional heat treatment or washing is called ready-to-eat food. Extra care must be taken to ensure the safety of these foods.

Temperature Danger Zone

Most microorganisms that cause foodborne illness typically grow best between temperatures of 41°F and 140°F.

calibration

placing the thermometer in 50/50 solution of ice and water or boiling water, and hitting the “reset” button will automatically calibrate the thermometer.

Boiling-Point Method

Bring water to a boil. Place the thermometer probe (stem) into the boiling water. Make sure that the thermometer probe does not touch the bottom or sides of the pan. Wait until the indicator stops moving, then record the temperature.


If the temperature is 212°F, do nothing, the thermometer is accurate. (This is the temperature of boiling water at sea level.)


If the temperature is not 212°F, rotate the hex-adjusting nut using a wrench or other tool until the indicator is at 212°F.
