Food safety

The basics of Food & Beverages are the pillars of success, Food safety is one of it.

1. Food Safety By JP Lawand

2. Definition Food safety is a scientific discipline describing: Handling Preparation Storage Serving Of food in ways that prevent food borne illness. This Includes a number of routines that should be followed to avoid potentially severe health hazards Food Safety By JP Lawand

3. Why we Study Food Safety? To Maintain Guest Safety To Maintain Quality Standards To Avoid the loss of business To Avoid law suits To Maintain the guest trust Bankruptcy Success Food Safety By JP Lawand

4. Food contamination refers to foods that are spoiled or tainted because they either contain microorganisms, such as bacteria or parasites, or toxic substances that make them unfit for consumption. Food Contamination Food Safety By JP Lawand

5. The Cause of Food Contamination Physical Microbiological Chemical Biological FOOD CONTAMINATION Food Safety By JP Lawand

6. Food Safety Physical Objects that gets into the food during preparation or serving Equipment part Damaged utensils Cleaning Brush By JP Lawand

7. Food Safety How to prevent Physical Contamination Hair restraint using suitable cap or hair net Long sleeve uniform Jacket’s pocket always empty Clean environment, closed windows and doors to avoid dust coming from outside Equipment well maintained (check the screws, the plastic accessories…) Avoid the usage of deteriorated utensils Ceiling and walls well maintained By JP Lawand

8. Food Safety Chemical D etergent Pesticides Water Air By JP Lawand

9. Food Safety How to prevent Chemical Contamination Designate a suitable area away from food to store the detergent Label the detergent with name and usage Rinse with water utensils and equipment after using detergents (White vinegar is ideally to remove the detergent) Do not mix between food containers and cleaning containers Always check the water you are using, regularly check the filtering system. Regularly check the ventilation system Cover the food when you are using the pesticides, sanitize everything afterward By JP Lawand

10. Food Safety Biological Several insects may transfer food poisoning bacteria to food. Flies often land on animal fasces where they pick up large numbers of bacteria on their hairy body . In addition they poop and vomit previous meals back onto the food as they feed . Cockroaches often lives in sewers and commonly feed on infected waste. They hide in the most difficult to reach places in food rooms. By JP Lawand

11. How to prevent Biological Contamination Food Safety C lean and sanitize the working area C lean the unreachable places ( Corners…) Maintain walls, ceiling and floor to be free from holes Make sure that grain, sugar, flour are free from any sort of pest Regular pest control check Efficient air curtains on doors Fly killers machine Cover food By JP Lawand

12. Food Safety Microbiological We have a microbiological contamination when we add contaminated raw material or when we have improper handling Exp.: Bacteria, Viruses, Fungus, Parasites, Protozoa As mentioned before in “the Personal Hygiene” Micro-germs (Bacteria, viruses…) are present everywhere it is in the air, the soil, and water, and in and on plants and animals, including us. By JP Lawand

13. Food Safety Reproduction of Bacteria “FAT TOM” F ood A cidity T empreture O xygen T ime M oisture Bacteria requires a high protein, high carbohydrate food source Exp.: Meat, Seafood, Poultry, Cooked plant food (backed potato, pasta, rice…) Foods that are acidic or slightly neutral Bacteria can not typically reproduce in a highly acidic food Bacteria rapidly reproduce between (5 – 60 C) THE DANGER ZONE Given enough time in the danger zone range, bacteria will start rapidly reproducing The Maximum time is 4 hours There are certain Bacteria that requires oxygen to reproduce and we call it Aerobic Bacteria Bacteria requires Moist food to reproduce. Exp.: Yeast By JP Lawand

14. Food Safety -18 5 60 74 100 115 120 Temperature Vs Bacteria By JP Lawand

15. Potentially Hazardous Foods Beef, poultry, pork, gravies, soups Meat or fish stuffing Finfish, shellfish, raw fish Dairy products Eggs, cream-filled pastries, custards Vegetables (cooked, raw sprouts, cabbage) Starchy foods (grains, rice, potatoes) Food Safety By JP Lawand

16. Food Safety How to prevent Contamination In order to prevent any contamination, standards were set to limit the risk, one of the standards is HACCP. HACCP ( H azards A nalysis and C ritical C ontrol P oints) Based on six principles Principle 1: Conduct a hazard analysis Principle 2: Identify critical control points Principle 3: Establish critical limits for each critical control point. Principle 4: Establish critical control point monitoring requirements Principle 5: Establish corrective actions. By JP Lawand

17. Critical Control Point Purchasing Receiving Storing Preparing Cooking Serving and holding Cooling Reheating Food Safety By JP Lawand

18. Purchasing Evaluate suppliers Compliance with food safety standards(HACCP, ISO 22000…) Trained employees Safe /sanitary packaging D elivery during “slow” times Supplier facility(Specially for Meat, poultry and fish) Transportation and temperature controlled delivery Place your orders according to your consumption taking into consideration the products shelf life Food Safety By JP Lawand

19. Receiving Check supplies upon receipt for: signs of spoilage color, odor, texture, slime, mold, dirt, insects swollen , pierced, rusted, wet containers Quality , temperature, general condition Arrange delivery for off-peak hours Plan ahead to ensure sufficient storage space Transfer to proper storage promptly Clean transport carts Date food (arrival or “use by” date )(exp.: Vegetables) Remove the external packaging (carton or dirty crates) and place the products in clean crates. (for vegetables after cleaning and sanitizing) Food Safety By JP Lawand

20. Food Safety By JP Lawand

21. Storing Dry storage Clean/orderly, items 15 cm off floor Good ventilation, 10 – 24 C (verify temp periodically) First In, First Out (FIFO) rotation Dating packages, place new to rear Clean spills promptly, trash kept out of room Segregate cleaning supplies (avoid contamination ) Pest Control Check humidity Food Safety By JP Lawand

22. Food Safety By JP Lawand

23. Refrigerated storage < 5 C (colder preferred, Verify periodically) Don’t overload Allow for air transfer (slotted shelves) Date items Properly sealed Raw/uncooked on bottom – away from ready to eat foods Food Safety Storing By JP Lawand

24. Food Safety By JP Lawand

25. Freezer - 18 C, store foods immediately for foods that are frozen upon receipt Slotted shelves (circulation) Use moisture proof containers/wrappings Avoid multiple entries Segregate large warm “container” into smaller ones Food Safety Storing By JP Lawand

26. Preparation & Food Handling Cross contamination : is one of the most common causes of food poisoning. It happens when harmful germs are spread onto food from other food, surfaces, hands or equipment. Food Safety By JP Lawand

27. How to Prevent Cross Contamination Don't let raw meat, poultry or unwashed raw vegetables touch other foods. Never prepare ready-to-eat food using a chopping board, utensil or knife that you have used to prepare raw meat, poultry or unwashed raw vegetables unless they have been washed and disinfected thoroughly first. Clean worktops and utensils with hot water and detergent and remember to disinfect those surfaces that have come in contact with raw meat, poultry and unwashed raw vegetables. You can disinfect equipment and utensils using boiling water, a chemical such as an antibacterial leaner or in a dishwasher. Always wash your hands thoroughly after touching raw meat, poultry and unwashed raw vegetables, and before you touch anything else. Always cover raw meat and store it on the bottom shelf of the fridge where it can't touch or drip onto other foods. Root vegetables such as potatoes, leeks and carrots often have traces of soil on them which can contain harmful bacteria, so wash them thoroughly before use. Don't forget to wash other fruit and vegetables too, especially if they are going to be eaten raw. Keep dishcloths clean and change them regularly. Avoid preparing food for yourself or others if you are ill, especially with vomiting and/or diarrhea. Food Safety By JP Lawand

32. Cooking Cook foods to proper internal temperature Internal temp of 75 C Stir foods in deep pots frequently Regulate size/thickness of foods (uniformity) Validate cooking times/temperatures Check thickest part of the food Always use sanitary cooking/serving utensils Never touch prepared foods with bare hands Food Safety By JP Lawand

33. Food Safety By JP Lawand

34. Serving and Holding Keep hot food above 60 C Steam tables, keep food covered Stir foods to ensure even heating Keep cold food below 5 C Refrigeration unit/ice Check temperature periodically Sanitize thermometer after each use Discard food held in danger zone (4 hours) Never add “fresh” food to food already out for serving Food Safety By JP Lawand

35. Wash hands before serving food Clean/sanitary long handled ladles and spoons for serving Never touch parts of cups/plates that will have contact w/food Cover cuts w/ bandages and cover with gloves Change gloves after contact with contaminated surface Sneeze guards Avoid Cross Contamination Pre-wrap food as much as possible Watch customer behavior – remove contaminated food. Food Safety Serving and Holding By JP Lawand

36. Food Safety By JP Lawand

37. Serving Rigid personal hygiene requirements handling raw food touching unclean surfaces or equipment Keep hands away from face, head no smoking, eating, handling money hand washing following restroom use adequately cover cuts, abrasions no gum chewing, spitting, coughing clean work clothes, hair restraints used Food Safety By JP Lawand

38. Serving Don’t wear jewelry Use utensils for serving Don’t taste food with finger Report any illness to management, avoid handling food Healthy workers, hair washing, bathing, with frequent hand washing Food Safety By JP Lawand

39. Cooling Problems here are #1 cause of food borne illness Rapid cooling important Chill to below 5 C Reduce food mass (divide into multiple containers) Shallow pre-chilled pans Use ice water bath for quick chill then refrigerate Stir to increase cooling Monitor temperature periodically Store in covered containers Food Safety By JP Lawand

40. Reheating Boil/heat to > 75 C within 2 hours of removal from refrigeration Never reheat more than once Never mix leftover and fresh food Discard leftovers refrigerated for more than a week from preparation date Food Safety By JP Lawand
