COOKING VALIDATIONS

Are your cooking validations up to date?

Cooking Validations are carried out to provide consumers with the correct information and re-heating guidlines for ready meals and food products, this is important in terms of product quality and safety.
As part of the new EU Microbiological Criteria Regulations that came into force in January 2006, manufacturers need to be able to demonstrate that the cooking instructions on the product packaging are such that the temperatures and times stated will be enough to inactivate any food poisoning organisms.

Manufacturers also need to know that re-heating will not compromise the quality of the product.

At ILS our extensively equipped test kitchens and technical expertise can offer a cooking instruction generation and validation service.
