Seafood gumbo prepared on Thursday, cooled and stored, and reheated Friday night has passed through the temperature danger zone how many times?

2 1 4 3

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

Any time food’s temperature moves through the 41°F–135°F range, it’s considered to pass through the temperature danger zone, and each crossing counts as one pass. For seafood gumbo, you go through that range three times in this scenario: first during the initial cooking as the temp rises from ambient to above 135°F, second during cooling as it drops from above 135°F down through 41°F and below, and third during reheating as it climbs again from below 41°F to above 135°F. So the total number of passes is three.
