Monaco: regels voor voedseltemperatuur

“Wet” is een bindende regel. “Officiële richtlijnen” zijn geen wet, maar inspecteurs verwachten ze wel. “Chef Hygiene standaardwaarde” is een waarde die de app controleert wanneer er geen regel is die een getal voorschrijft.

• WetChilled food has a legal maximum for each food: minced meat 2°C, offal 3°C, meat preparations 4°C, poultry and game 4°C, fresh fish and cooked shellfish 2°C, pre-prepared chilled meals 3°C, very perishable food 4°C, other perishable food 8°C (AM 2017-102, Annex I).
• WetFrozen: ice cream, minced meat and fish products at −18°C. Other frozen food at −12°C (AM 2017-102, Annex I). Chef Hygiene checks −18°C for all.
• WetHot food must be kept at 63°C or more (AM 2017-102, Annex I).
• WetCooling: the core must not stay between 63°C and 10°C for more than 2 hours. Then store at 0 to 3°C (AM 2017-102, Annex IV, point 1).
• WetReheating: no more than 1 hour between 10°C and serving temperature, never below 63°C, and eat it the same day (AM 2017-102, Annex IV, point 3).
• WetCold dishes are kept at 0 to 3°C. They may be out of the cold at most 2 hours before serving, if at 10°C or less. Chilled pre-prepared dishes keep at most 3 days after production without a shelf-life study, with a use-by date on each pack (AM 2017-102, Annex IV, points 2 and 4).
• Officiële richtlijnenCooking: Monaco law gives no core temperature for normal kitchens. Chef Hygiene checks 70°C for 2 minutes. The operator should justify the figure in the HACCP plan.
