What Goes Where in the Fridge — Top-to-Bottom Shelf Rules
फ्रिज में क्या कहाँ रखें — Top-to-Bottom Shelf Rules

The 3 Knife Rules That Save Your Fingers — Sharp = Safe

EP 08
3 Labels Every Container Needs — Item, Date, Initials
3 Labels हर container पर — Item, Date, Initials
One sticker with one word isn't a label — it's trash. Three fields on every container: what, when (prep + use-by), who. That's FIFO's foundation.

EP 09
The 5°–60° Danger Zone Rule Every Chef Must Know
5°–60° का Danger Zone Rule — हर Chef को पता होना चाहिए
Between 5°C and 60°C bacteria double every 20 minutes. One tray of chicken left at 22°C for two hours is not late — it is contaminated. Senior chef Priya (channel debut) catches junior commis Aisha's mistake and teaches the temperature rule that separates safe kitchens from FSSAI-shutdown ones. This is the CCP that HACCP is built around. Play it before every service. Lock it before you touch a raw protein again.

EP 10
Hot Hold ≥63°C, 4 Hours Max — The Buffet Rule Nobody Follows
Hot Hold ≥63°C, 4 घंटे Max — वो Buffet Rule जिसे कोई नहीं follow करता
Your bain-marie is bubbling. That means nothing. Probe the dal at the centre — what temperature is that? THAT number is what matters. Not the water. Not the pan. The food. Chef Priya teaches the hot-holding rule that separates buffets that pass FSSAI audits from ones that get shut down: internal ≥63°C, 4-hour cumulative maximum, probe every 2 hours, one-time reheat to 74°C, then discard. And the 2/4 cooling rule that stops Clostridium perfringens from growing overnight in your walk-in.

EP 11
The Walk-in Discipline: ≤5°C, Top-to-Bottom, FIFO
Walk-in Discipline: ≤5°C, Top-to-Bottom, FIFO
Your walk-in isn't storage. It's a hierarchy — and a clock. Chef Priya walks you through the discipline that runs every professional kitchen: the ≤5°C hold, the top-to-bottom shelf order that stops cross-contamination, the three labels every container must carry, FIFO (First In First Out), the strip curtain rule, and the mistakes that quietly spoil a kitchen's cold chain. Play this before service. Your bottom shelf is where raw chicken belongs — not on top of the cooked curry. And that container without a date? Bin it.
