    FSM 317: Temperature Danger Zone and Your Holiday Dinner

    Episode transcript [Music] This is Food Safety in a Minute, I’m Susie Craig. Keep holiday food delicious and safe following time and temperature guidelines from the United States Department of Agriculture. The temperature danger zone for food safety is 40 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit where disease-causing bacteria multiply quickly possibly causing foodborne illness. Temperature and time matter. After two hours in the danger zone, all perishable food on your buffet table must be refrigerated or frozen to ensure food safety. This can be challenging for the host. These tips may help. • Use warming trays or slow cookers to keep hot food hot. • Hold the cold items in a cooler, serve in smaller containers. • Limit buffet service to two hours. Then, cool and refrigerate leftovers including take-home food for guests.

    FSM 315: Why Does Fruitcake Last So Long?

    Episode Transcript [Music] Why Does Fruitcake Last So Long? Welcome to Food Safety in a Minute from Washington State University Extension. Focus of humor, the longevity of a holiday fruitcake. According to the USDA, in a pantry, fruitcakes stay fresh and safe to eat for six months. When frozen, for up to a year. Why does fruitcake last so long? Because of the ingredients and preparation. Dried fruit contains less moisture along with a high sugar content. Both prevent bacterial growth. Often, home-made fruitcake is soaked in alcohol which adds flavor and antimicrobial properties. After baking bread or cake, the starch molecules in flour become disorganized creating air pockets which lead them to stale more quickly. The dense texture and low moisture content of fruitcake limit this reaction. Thus, they are good to eat for a long time before becoming stale. Thank you for listening. I’m Susie Craig.

    FSM 314: Safely Using Frozen Leftovers During the Busiest Season of the Year

    Episode transcript [Music] I’m Susie Craig. Welcome to Food Safety in a Minute. It’s a busy time of the year. Minimize time in the kitchen, go easy on your budget, and minimize food waste by taking inventory and using frozen leftovers. Frozen leftovers maintain quality between two and six months of storage. Use the oldest first, especially if you’re tempted to use Thanksgiving leftovers. For flexible family meals, thaw leftovers in the refrigerator. You have three to four days to reheat and serve them. Some frozen leftovers including soups or stews can be reheated directly in a saucepan. For quick meal preparation, thawing in a microwave oven with appropriate settings may make sense. All leftovers should be re-heated to 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Always use a food thermometer to check. From Washington State University Extension, this is Food Safety in a Minute.

    FSM 313: Take Care with Thanksgiving Leftovers: Maximize Your Budget, Minimize Food Waste

    Episode transcript [Music] Welcome to Food Safety in a Minute from Washington State University Extension. Food, often large quantities of food are part of Thanksgiving celebrations. Here are two suggestions to maximize your budget and minimize food waste while protecting your family from foodborne illness. • Practice the Two-Hour Rule after cooking, serving, and when sending leftovers home with guests. Perishable food should be refrigerated within two hours after serving. Bacteria grows and some bacteria produce toxins between 40 degrees and 140 degrees Fahrenheit, the temperature danger zone. Once food is served, it needs to be refrigerated. This includes “doggie bags” for guests. After two hours, food should be discarded. • Leftovers should be eaten within four days or frozen in airtight, labeled containers or bags. I’m Susie Craig. Happy Thanksgiving.

    FSM 311: Fresh or Frozen Turkey for Thanksgiving?

    Episode transcript [Music] I’m Susie Craig for Food Safety in a Minute. Is it too early to buy a Thanksgiving turkey? It depends on your personal preference of fresh or frozen. Either way, the timing of your purchase matters for food safety. Turkeys cooled and held at 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below are labeled “frozen” or “previously frozen”. There’s plenty of time between now and Thanksgiving to purchase a frozen turkey, defrost, and cook. A turkey labelled “fresh” has never been refrigerated below 26 degrees Fahrenheit. The USDA advises waiting one or two days before Thanksgiving to purchase a fresh turkey. Always check the manufacturer’s tag on fresh turkey for “Best by” or “Use by” date. These indicate the turkey will be OK on the date of cooking. This is Food Safety in a Minute from Washington State University Extension.
