GENERAL HOLDING GUIDELINES
Chefs, cooks and other specialized food service
personnel employ varied methods of cooking. Proper
holding temperatures for a specific food product must
be based on the moisture content of the product,
product density, volume, and proper serving
temperatures. Safe holding temperatures must also be
correlated with palatability in determining the length
of holding time for a specific product.
Halo Heat maintains the maximum amount of product
moisture content without the addition of water, water
vapor, or steam. Maintaining maximum natural
product moisture preserves the natural flavor of the
product and provides a more genuine taste. In
addition to product moisture retention, the gentle
properties of Halo Heat maintain a consistent
temperature throughout the cabinet without the
necessity of a heat distribution fan, thereby
preventing further moisture loss due to evaporation
or dehydration.
When product is removed from a high temperature
cooking environment for immediate transfer into
equipment with the lower temperature required for
hot food holding, condensation can form on the
outside of the product and on the inside of plastic
containers used in self-service applications. Allowing
the product to release the initial steam and heat
produced by high temperature cooking can alleviate
this condition. To preserve the safety and quality of
freshly cooked foods however, a maximum of 1 to 2
minutes must be the only time period allowed for the
initial heat to be released from the product.
The unit is equipped with a thermostat indicating a
range of between 1 and 10. Use a metal-stemmed
indicating thermometer to measure the internal
temperature of the product(s) being held. Adjust the
thermostat setting to achieve the best overall setting
based on internal product temperature.
