Keeping food cold helps to stop harmful mful bacteria from growing. growing When we take food out of the fridge to prepare it warm temperatures in the kitchen will encourage bacteria to grow. Once food is prepared place it back in a chilled unit or fridge as quickly as possible. Fridges dges and chilling units MUST be set at 50C and below Harmful bacteria can grow grow in food that is not chilled down as quickly as possible. Large pans of food can take a long time to cool. Speed eed up this process by placing them in a sink of cold water. You could also divide the food into smaller portions. Never put steaming hot food straight into the fridge, cover and place in the coolest part of the kitchen. Once the food is cooled sufficiently wrap properly and put it into the fridge.
