Ready to chill!

Training began Tuesday, Nov. 13 as Friendship Trays prepares to move its hot-meals program to cool or chillled meals. The week marked the completion of installation and preparation of the "blast chiller" equipment. The chiller will quickly cool food hot off the stove, locking in nutrients and color and good taste. After staff learn how to operate the computer-controlled chiller and other details are ironed out, conversion will begin on a few weekday routes.
