Food flavor and aroma are usually so closely related that it is
difficult, if not impossible, to separate them. There is also an
important, inseparable relationship between cleanliness and food
flavor. Cleanliness, top operating efficiency, and appearance of
equipment contribute considerably to savory, appetizing foods.
Good equipment that is kept clean, works better and lasts longer.
Most food imparts its own particular aroma and many foods
also absorb existing odors. Unfortunately, during this absorp-
tion, there is no distinction between GOOD and BAD odors.
The majority of objectionable flavors and odors troubling food
service operations are caused by bacteria growth. Sourness, ran-
cidity, mustiness, stale or other OFF flavors are usually the result
of germ activity.
The easiest way to insure full, natural food flavor is through
comprehensive cleanliness. This means good control of both visi-
ble soil (dirt) and invisible soil (germs). A thorough approach to
sanitation will provide essential cleanliness. It will assure an
attractive appearance of equipment, along with maximum effi-
ciency and utility. More importantly, a good sanitation program
provides one of the key elements in the prevention of food-borne
illnesses.
A controlled holding environment for prepared foods is just
one of the important factors involved in the prevention of food-
borne illnesses. Temperature monitoring and control during
receiving, storage, preparation, and the service of foods are of
equal importance.

that require holding at a specific temperature.
A comprehensive sanitation program should focus on the
training of staff in basic sanitation procedures. This includes per-
sonal hygiene, proper handling of raw foods, cooking to a safe
internal product temperature, and the routine monitoring of
internal temperatures from receiving through service.
Most food-borne illnesses can be prevented through proper
temperature control and a comprehensive program of sanitation.
Both these factors are important to build quality service as the
foundation of customer satisfaction. Safe food handling practices
to prevent food-borne illness is of critical importance to the
health and safty of your customers. HACCP, an acronym for
Hazard Analysis (at) Critical Control Points, is a quality control
program of operating procedures to assure food integrity, quali-
ty, and safety. Taking steps necessary to augment food safety
practices are both cost effective and relatively simple. While
HACCP guidelines go far beyond the scope of this manual,
additional information is available by contacting the

Chefs, cooks and other specialized food service personnel
employ varied methods of cooking. Proper holding tempera-
tures for a specific food product must be based on the moisture
content of the product, product density, volume, and proper
serving temperatures. Safe holding temperatures must also be
correlated with palatability in determining the length of holding
time for a specific product.
Halo Heat maintains the maximum amount of product mois-
ture content without the addition of water, water vapor, or
steam. Maintaining maximum natural product moisture pre-
serves the natural flavor of the product and provides a more gen-
uine taste. In addition to product moisture retention, the gentle
properties of Halo Heat maintain a consistent temperature
throughout the cabinet without the necessity of a heat distribu-
tion fan, thereby preventing further moisture loss due to evapo-
ration or dehydration..
In an enclosed holding environment, too much moisture
content is a condition which can be relieved. A product achiev-
ing extremely high temperatures in preparation must be allowed
to decrease in temperature before being placed in a controlled
holding atmosphere. If the product is not allowed to decrease in
temperature, excessive condensation will form increasing the
moisture content on the outside of the product.
Most Halo Heat Holding Equipment is provided with a ther-
mostat control between 60° and 200°F (16° to 93°C). If the unit is
equipped with vents, close the vents for moist holding and open
the vents for crisp holding.
If the unit is equipped with a thermostat indicating a range
of between 1 and 10, use a metal-stemmed indicating thermome-
ter to measure the internal temperature of the product(s) being
held. Adjust the thermostat setting to achieve the best overall
setting based on internal product temperature.
