Reed needs to cool a large batch of meat sauce. What is the first step he should take?
  1. Add ice to the sauce.
  2. Place the entire vat of sauce into the freezer.
  3. Divide the sauce into smaller containers.
  4. Leave the sauce to cool on the stove for one hour.
Explanation
Answer: C - If Reed needs to cool a large batch of meat sauce, the first step he should take is to divide the sauce into smaller containers. Doing so will help the cooling sauce move through the temperature danger zone more quickly. Reed should never put the entire vat of sauce into the freezer to cool. It will not cool evenly or fast enough to avoid the growth of pathogens.
