Restaurant Opening Binder
Every binder a restaurant can download prints a holding temperature, a cooling time and a sanitizer strength. The food code published federally is a MODEL that states adopt, amend or ignore, so those figures may not be the ones your own health department works to, and they would be sitting in your binder, in your kitchen, with your name at the bottom of the page.
