Samo154 Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 Can anyone link me to the health and saftey forms or documentation I have to fill in for sous vide,cooking? Struggle ruling to find any ready made forms. Thanks in advance
pbear Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 What sort of establishment are you (restaurant, prepared food, catering, etc.)? Where are you located? What you're required to have generally is a matter of local regulation. And if what they require is a HACCP plan, that's not a form.
pbear Posted February 3, 2015 Posted February 3, 2015 So, you need a HACCP plan, right? At least that's how I read the Manchester Food Services Code. See He-P 2331.09 (pp.87-89). As mentioned, that's not a form. In fact, it's pretty darned complicated. Frankly, Dave Arnold argues you're better off avoiding the issue by not using a vacuum. Whether this works in Manchester is more than I know. By the way, what are you cooking (or wanting to cook) sous vide?
Samo154 Posted February 3, 2015 Topic Starter Posted February 3, 2015 Poultry and some game! Where I worked in London they use to record what was cooked and to what temp so was wondering if there were any of these forms around
pbear Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Don't have. Can't be hard to create. Pretty sure not enough on their own to satisfy the regulators. Good luck.
nickrey Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Try this link. It has forms for HACCP for cook/chill and sous vide cooking embedded in the document. Nick Reynolds, aka "nickrey" "The Internet is full of false information." PlatoMy eG Foodblog
pbear Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Unfortunately, the internal links in that checklist no longer work. Digging around on their website, though, turned up a link to the USDA's HACCP-Based Standard Operating Procedures, which seems to have been the original source of the procedures and logs they recommend Samo, you also should download the document referenced in the third paragraph of that page, which explains how these forms fit into HACCP plans.
nickrey Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 The links worked for me. You just need to to use them at the website rather than downloading the document and then clicking. Nick Reynolds, aka "nickrey" "The Internet is full of false information." PlatoMy eG Foodblog
pbear Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) Actually, I had opened your link as a webpage, but the internal links won't work for me in Firefox. (It's also possible that's a configuration problem.) Tried again in Explorer. There, they worked for everything except the cooking log, which appears to have gone missing on Southern Nevada's website. It is available, though, Samo, on the page I linked above, both as a Word doc and as a pdf. Edited February 5, 2015 by pbear (log)
