Why should a manager train staff to prep chicken salad in small batches instead of pulling all the ingredients out at once?
a.Small batches limit the time any portion of the food spends in the temperature danger zone during prep
b.Small batches keep portion sizes and plate costs more consistent from one order to the next
c.Small batches prevent allergen cross-contact, because a smaller amount of chicken salad ever touches the prep table
d.Small batches cut the number of bowls and utensils that have to be washed at the end of the shift

Working in small batches means only the food being actively prepped is out of refrigeration, while the rest stays at 41°F or lower. This minimizes the total time each portion spends in the danger zone between 41°F and 135°F. Batch size does not control allergen cross-contact, which is prevented by separation and by cleaning and sanitizing surfaces, and portion consistency and dishwashing load are quality or labor concerns rather than food safety controls.
