compares lightness, density, weight, etc.

36
Q

4 production systems and basic definition**

A

1) conventional- all done on premises where meal is served; same day
2) commissary - satellite
3) ready-prepared/cook-chill/cook-freeze - onsite, chilled or frozen for later use
4) assembly-serve/total convenience - completely prepared individual portions

37
Q

what is a conventional system?**

A

ALL PREPARATION done in the SAME PLACE FOODS SERVED; foods prepped and served SAME DAY

38
Q

adaptable to preferences, menu flexibility, low distribution costs, less freezer storage

39
Q

disadvantages of conventional system?

A

uneven stressful workday, productivity lower, high labor costs

40
Q

centralized delivery (conventional)**

A

trays in CENTRAL SERVING AREA; HEATED/REFRIGERATED CARTS, HEATED PELLETS

41
Q

centralized delivery (conventional)- insulated trays main concern***

A

most important concern is HOW QUICKLY the tray can be delivered! - TIME

42
Q

decentralized delivery (conventional)***

used where DISTANCE FROM KITCHEN TO PATIENT IS GREAT; BULK FOOD delivered, trays set up IN SERVING AREAS w/ SEVERAL KITCHENS

43
Q

decentralized delivery (conventional)- equipment needs***

A

DUPLICATION OF EQUIPMENT, EMPLOYEES, SUPERVISORS

44
Q

automated cart system***

A

built-in corridors (monorail)- having an elevator from the kitchen to the floor

45
Q

when is it decided to use an automated cart system?***

A

BLUEPRINT PHASE- expensive!

46
Q

commissary***

A

SATELLITE:

  • CENTRALIZES PROCUREMENT & PRODUCTION
  • PRODUCTION (KITCHEN) AND SERVICE AREAS (PATIENT) in SEPARATE facilities
47
Q

advantages of commissary***

A
  • LARGE-VOLUME PURCHASING
  • no duplicate equipment or personnel
  • uniform quality for all products
48
Q

disadvantages of commissary***

A

**9 CCPS - temperatures & humans

49
Q

50
Q

what is ready-prepared?***

A

foods prepared onsite, then frozen or chilled for LATER use

51
Q

requirements for ready-prepared***

A

1) blast chiller or freezer

2) adequate storage

52
Q

distinct feature of ready-prepared

A

separation between time of preparation and time of service

53
Q

how long may food be held in ready-prepared: (1) blast chilling (2) tumbled (3) freezer

seals raw, fresh food items in plastic pouches to allow chilled storage and then cooking in boiling water prior to service

56
Q

re-thermalization techniques for ready-prepared
