Why Cook Chill?

A
  1. Increased food safety
    • Chills food through danger zone faster for increased food safety ( 140 deg F to 45 deg F)
  2. Better food quality
    • Food retains its fresh appearance and texture. (Veggies snap, and meat remains tender)
    • Reduce shrinkage and give food a longer life.
  3. Production
    • Schedule kitchen workers to cook all similar items at once
    • Produce to inventory and avoid going through the same steps several times a day.
    • Chill and store items until they are needed.
