Гибралтар: правила за температурата на храната

„Закон“ е задължително правило. „Официално ръководство“ не е закон, но инспекторите го очакват. „Chef Hygiene по подразбиране“ е стойност, спрямо която приложението проверява, когато никое правило не дава число.

• ПравоHigh-risk food must be kept below 50°F, which is 10°C. This is looser than the UK or Malta (Regulations 1977, reg. 25(2)–(3)). Chef Hygiene checks the fridge against 5°C, its own safer target.
• ПравоHot food must be kept at 145°F (62.7°C) or more. Chef Hygiene uses 63°C. Food on sale, or brought in within 4 hours before opening, is exempt. The law sets no other grace time (Regulations 1977, reg. 25(3)–(4)).
• ПравоIf hot food falls below 145°F, cool it below 10°C as quickly as reasonably practicable, then keep it below 10°C. The law gives no time. Chef Hygiene suggests 2 hours.
• ПравоIncoming high-risk food must be at 145°F or more, or below 50°F, without avoidable delay (Regulations 1977, reg. 25(2)). Chef Hygiene suggests a safer limit of 8°C for chilled deliveries.
