Gideon just removed sliced carrots from an ice-water slurry. What should he do before adding more carrots to the slurry?
  1. Nothing, the slurry can be used for multiple batches.
  2. Add more ice to the slurry.
  3. Add fresh water to the slurry.
  4. Empty and clean the container then make a fresh slurry.
Explanation
Answer: D - After Gideon removed sliced carrots from an ice-water slurry, he needs to empty and clean the container then make fresh slurry before adding more carrots. Ice-water slurries can NOT be used over even for multiple batches of the same food. If the first batch of carrots contaminated the water, additional foods in the same water will also become contaminated. To maintain food safety, the water should be drained and the container cleaned and sanitized before it is used again.
