What is the maximum hold time for a tray of cut biscuits in the cooler (under refrigeration)?

The maximum hold time for a tray of cut biscuits in the cooler is indeed 1 1/2 hours. This timeframe is established to ensure that the quality and safety of the biscuits are maintained. Biscuits, being a delicate pastry, can dry out or lose their intended texture if held for an extended period. Holding them for up to 1 1/2 hours ensures they remain fresh and can be baked to the proper standard when needed.

Maintaining appropriate holding times is crucial in food preparation and service, as it helps to prevent foodborne illness and ensures that food maintains its intended flavor and texture. Proper knowledge of hold times can significantly enhance operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
