Time & Temperature (NYC)第 62 / 240 题
Which statement about freezing TCS food is correct?
a.Freezing kills all bacteria, making food sterile
b.Freezing stops or slows bacterial growth but does not kill all bacteria, which can resume growing when thawed
c.Frozen food can never cause illness
d.Freezing raises the food's temperature over time
解析
Freezing halts or greatly slows bacterial growth, but it does not kill all bacteria; surviving organisms can multiply again once the food thaws into the danger zone. That is why thawing must be controlled and food must still be cooked to required temperatures. Freezing is a preservation method, not a kill step, except for parasites under specified freezing parameters.
