Page 15: Garde Manger SANDWICHES AND THE SANDWICH STATION

assemble several sandwichesSerrated knifeProportioned ingredients (saves time and

money)

Maintaining Safety and Sanitation

Disposable gloves required when handling ready to eat

Refrigerated wells keep ingredients cold Food below 41 degrees Take temps near tops of wells because

that area will warm up first

maintain sanitationKeep well stocked and clean

Page 19: Garde Manger SANDWICHES AND THE SANDWICH STATION

Assembly Line – when preparing large quantities Each person performs a repetitive job Speeds up production Cooks line up on one or two sides of table Tasks is performed and passed on to another

team member Example: Person 1 – spreads mayo, person 2

places ham, 3 places cheese, 4 spreads mustard, 5 wraps and packages
