PROPER STORAGE OF

SANDWICHES
Storing sandwiches is one of the most
important activities after preparation
where in they are to be kept properly to
avoid spoilage. The most important
principles for avoiding cross
contamination.
Remember the basic formula 4-40
140 which means perishable foods
should spend no more than 4 hours
at a temperature between 40 and
140ºf.
By the end of 4 hours bacteria may
have multiplied to unsafe levels, so
food that has sat out at room
temperature for two hours and then
been returned to the refrigerator has
only another two hours of room
temperature shelf life left unless it has
been cooked again .
Some sandwich ingredients
and fillings should be
cooked, covered in a
separate airtight containers
refrigerated until ready to
use.
Keep bread tightly wrapped and
in moisture proof wrapping. This
stops it from dying and guards
against picking up odors. It
should be away from ovens and
hot equipment.
If bread must be kept
more than one day, it
may be frozen thaw
without unwrapping.
Wrap sandwiches with
wax paper, paper
napkins plastic wraps or
aluminum foil to keep
them in good condition.
To keep a number of
unwrapped sandwiches
just place a damp towel
in a shallow pan and
cover with wax paper.
Arrange layers of sandwiches
with wax paper between each
layer put wax paper over the
sandwiches and cover it with a
damp towel keep the
sandwiches in the refrigerator
until serving time.
Refrigerate sandwiches for as long
as possible. If there will be a time
between making and serving
cover each tray with wax paper or
cling wrap to prevent the
sandwiches from dying out.
All sandwiches should
be stored at
recommended chill
temperatures 0.5ºc, soon
after packing.
Packing must be clearly
labeled with the product
description used by
date and storage and
equipment.
