Ensuring Food Safety with Optimal Rapid Testing Frequency at Hiepphatfood Catering
At Hiepphatfood Catering, our highest priority is delivering safe, nutritious, and high-quality meals to our customers. One of the key factors in achieving this is the rapid testing of incoming food ingredients, conducted by our professional Food Safety Department.
Why Is Rapid Testing for Incoming Food Necessary?
Rapid testing is the first and most important step in the food safety control process. This method helps:
- Detect potential hazards early, such as pesticide residues, antibiotics, banned chemicals, and harmful microorganisms.
- Ensure safe and high-quality ingredients while maintaining freshness and nutritional value.
- Prevent health risks and minimize the chance of food poisoning in collective kitchens.
- Comply with legal regulations and meet food safety standards such as ISO 22000:2018 and HACCP.
Rapid Testing Frequency at Hiepphatfood Catering
To optimize control efficiency, our Food Safety Department has developed a scientific rapid testing plan based on the characteristics of each food type and its risk level:
- Fresh ingredients (meat, fish, seafood, vegetables):
- Daily: Inspect sensory factors such as color, smell, and elasticity.
- Processed foods (vermicelli, cakes, sausages):
- Per batch: Conduct sensory checks for color and smell, and test for borax using BK04 rapid test kits from the Ministry of Public Security.
- Frozen foods:
- Weekly: Inspect storage temperature, freshness upon defrosting, sensory factors, and test for urea using UT12 rapid test kits from the Ministry of Public Security.
- Water supply:
- Weekly: Test for pH levels, chlorine residues, and microbiological indicators.
