THE FACTS What to do with leftovers? One common bromide is that leftovers stored in the refrigerator must be allowed to cool first at room temperature. The reasoning behind the claim varies. One theory is that allowing food to cool at a slower rate reduces the likelihood that it will spoil.
Because bacteria are everywhere, even after food is cooked to a safe internal temperature, they can be reintroduced to the food and then reproduce. For this reason leftovers must be put in shallow containers for quick cooling and refrigerated within 2 hours. You'll find similar statements from government agencies around the world. The safe limit for raw or cooked food is 2 hours in the danger zone (40-140Â° F or 4.4-60Â° C). If you're a restaurant owner or cook, you must follow this rule, hold hot foods above 60Â° C and quick-cool other foods before refrigerating.
