Guest Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Hi all, hope you all had a lovely Christmas and a happy new year! I just want to know what temperature is needed to be recorded in the kitchen, is it lunchtimes and teatimes or is it only meals containing meat? thanks in advance! Quote
Stargrower Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 We probe and record the temperature of all cooked or reheated food. Quote
lashes2508 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 You really only need to record temp for foods containing meat as these are the most risky . It is advised not to reheat food especially if not cooked on premises as you gave no knowledge of how many times it has been reheated. We don't allow any foods that need reheating. Quote
Guest sn0wdr0p Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 In my nursery we recorded everything as a check to ensure food was safely cooked and to show the EHO that we were cooking food safely and it would also be useful if there was an outbreak of food poisoning and you were investigated. Have you done your food safety qualification as this would be covered in the training? Quote
Stargrower Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 We do the same as SnOwdrOp and I think it's important to check all food. Foods such as rice can be a danger if not heated to over 75 degrees so it's worth checking and recording everything. Quote
woodlands1997 Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 We don't reheat foods at all and only record the temperatures of meat and food containing meat as that was what we were advised! Quote
