Bacteria cannot be avoided, or ignored, in the food industry, but, in most cases, the risks can be eliminated by good galley practice and safe food handling procedures. Which two of the following are the main strategies designed to reduce the negative impact of bacteria in food?
Відповісти
Besides contaminated food, what else may be a common and direct source of viral food poisoning on board ship, as described in this module?
Відповісти
By what name are the poisons associated with food poisoning known?
Toxins.
Gastrointestinal agents.
Venoms.
Amines.
Food stored in a refrigerator should be covered, wrapped or placed in containers to prevent drying out and cross-contamination. As explained in this training module, what else will such procedures help to prevent?
The absorption of odours.
Rapid discoloration of the food.
Sweating and build-up of moisture on the food surface.
The food having to be thrown away after it reaches its “use by” date.
How can wastage best be prevented with prepared cold dishes?
Only make a limited amount and accept there may not be enough to serve everybody.
Part of the dish can be kept back in the refrigerator or cold-room until needed to replace food that has been consumed.
Immediately freeze half of the dish when prepared and defrost it again in the microwave immediately before service.
Keep the dish covered during service, to keep it cool.
How may cold food best be kept at the required temperature on a buffet?
By nesting the dish in a bowl of ice.
By turning up the air conditioning.
By placing it in the freezer for half an hour before serving.
By keeping it away from hot food.
How might you best determine if a joint of meat is cooked right through?

I would store them together until required.
I would not be able to use them in the same meal.
I would add the sausages to the container containing the joint of meat and reheat for 15 minutes. In this way, they are served at the same temperature.

Overheated milk.
Bacterial infections originating in the noses and throats of food handlers or cuts on their skin.
Cooked meat, which has been allowed to cool and is later re-used in another meal.

To prevent the growth of bacteria in food, we must ensure that food is maintained outside a temperature range known as the “danger zone”. What are the generally accepted limits of that zone, as quoted in this training module?
5 °C to 63 °C (41 °F to 145 °F).
0 °C to 100 °C (32 °F to 212 °F).

When defrosting frozen meat in cold water, it must be in a leak-proof package or plastic bag. If the bag leaks, bacteria from the air or surrounding environment could be introduced into the food. What is the other risk described in this training module?
The meat will discolour.
The meat will give off an offensive smell.
The packaging will start to disintegrate and small bits of plastic may stick to the meat during cooking.

Because it completes the cooking process.
So that any oil or fat drains away.

Why can the Ciguatera toxins not be neutralised simply by cooking the fish to a specified temperature?
Because they will return as the fish cools to eating temperature.
Because the toxins inhabit the skin of the fish and they are transferred to the cooking liquor as it is cooked.
Because these toxins are particularly heat resistant.
