Potentially hazardous food must be kept at safe temperatures to prevent bacterial growth. The danger zone for these foods is between 41°F (5°C) and 135°F (57°C). To ensure safety, foods should be stored below 41°F or above 135°F. Keeping foods within these temperature ranges helps reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses.

What Temperature danger zone for potentially hazardous to food?
140
Potentially hazardous food cooked in a microwave mus be heated to what temp?
Potentially hazardous food really shouldn't be cooked in the microwave. However, the internal temperature of the food must reala minimum of 165 degrees fahrenheit.
What is the maximum temperature for holding cold potentially hazardous food?
The maximum temperature for holding cold potentially hazardous food is 41°F (5°C) or lower. This temperature helps inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria that can thrive in warmer conditions. It is essential to regularly monitor and maintain this temperature to ensure food safety.
What are the Characteristics Of potentially hazardous food?
identify the major types of potentially hazardous foods and the characteristics that are common
Is considered a potentially hazardous food?
Bread is not potentially hazardous because of it's low moisture content/
Is cooked rice potentially hazardous food?

Is sliced watermelon an example of potentially hazardous food?
A watermelon is mainly water, so a slice is not a hazardous food.
What must be kept short if you are a food handler?
The amount of time a potentially hazardous food is held within the temperature danger zone should kept as short as possible.
What is the typical temperature for a pie warmer?
Hot Storage Hot potentially hazardous food should be stored at or above 60°C at all times. Equipment that can be used to keep potentially hazardous foods hot include: • Bain Marie • Pie Warmer * Potentially hazardous food must be placed into bain maries and pie warmers hot as they are designed to maintain hot temperatures and not to heat food up to 60°C or above. Bain maries and pie warmers must also be hot prior to placing hot potentially hazardous foods into them.
The hot holding temperature for potentially hazardous foods must be?
The hot holding temperature for potentially hazardous foods must be kept at 135°F (57°C) or higher to prevent bacterial growth and ensure food safety. Maintaining this temperature helps to keep the food out of the temperature danger zone (41°F-135°F) where bacteria can multiply rapidly. Regular monitoring of temperatures is essential to ensure compliance with food safety regulations.
What is the most amount of time a cooked food should sit out at room temperature?
Potentially hazardous food should not sit at room temperature for more than 2 hours. Less time is better.
