Gb 'through each cooking
process mentally - or better
yet, on paper.’ When you go
over each process step-by
step you can identify when;
" where, and how Ur do the
-work, who you need to help
and what stepsyou can

goal is to foresee problems
and eliminate them before
: the actual. cooking begins.
Once you’ve finalized the
work process for all the foods

down in writing so' they

how to cook for large groups
arrange for sufficient
counter space.
' Menu Selection. Plan a
varied menu when serving
large groups of people so
'hopefully everyone will be
able to find something they
like. Offer contrasts in color,
size, shape texture, and
flavor of food.) Oven fried
chicken or roast ham make
good choices for the main
course. But if you want
versatility choose a rolled
rib of beef - it’s easy to
prepare and is good served
hot or cold.
When choosing foods for
the menu stay away from
potentially hazardous foods,
such as fish, meat, foods
with mayonnaise, and egg
and milk products. Consider
your equipment, too, for to
serve foods safely you must
serve hot foods hot - above -
140 F - and cold foods cold -
below 40. Bacteria will
develop if foods are left at
room temperature for any
length of time.
Unless you'have ideal
storage conditions, don’t
plan to store any food for
more than 24 hours. Instead,
buy ingredients as close to
serving time as possible and

Bacteria can be tran
sferred easily from one food
to another - even between
raw and cooked foods. When
preparing foods for the meal,
make sure hands, equipment
and work-surfaces are clean.
Be sure that all kitchen help
wash-their hands with soap
and water after each ac
tivity. (
Food safety can be more of
a problem when cooking in
large quantities/ Therefore,
be sure all recipes -are
followed exactly • cooking to
