The main aim is to win a gold medal. For this purpose, the participating nations have invested a lot of hard work and practice over the last months.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the culinary know-how, the implementation of the specifications and the interaction in the kitchen during the competition, the implementation and compliance with good hygiene practice during the competition is also required and is included in the jury team\u2019s evaluation. Ecolab has been taking on this part since 2012 as a partner of the VKD and has developed a comprehensive hygiene concept, which was also successfully implemented at the 2012 and 2016 IKA.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The key elements of the 2020 IKA hygiene concept<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2444\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2444\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.olympiade-der-koeche.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/03.jpg\" alt=\"03\" width=\"320\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.olympiade-der-koeche.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/03.jpg 462w, https:\/\/www.olympiade-der-koeche.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/03-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2444\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Temperature control during the IKA 2016.

All 22 kitchens will be equipped with systems and products in accordance with the requirements which were previously agreed upon with the food inspection authorities in charge. There are safety data sheets and operational manuals which are available on site. Before the competition start, the nations will be instructed by Ecolab. These practical instructions will be documented. All nations will be issued with a hygiene folder, specially compiled for this competition, which contains not only the cleaning and disinfection plans, but also the basic regulations of good hygiene practice.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the respective competitions, the service temperature will be measured and documented at the pass. To implement this, networking partner Rieber will use Ecolab\u2019s \u201cMobile CHECK\u201d system. If required, the collected data can be called up directly. There will be a seamless documentation of the data, which will form an essential part of the self-checking system for the VKD.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2446\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2446\" style=\"width: 309px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2446\" src=\"https:\/\/www.olympiade-der-koeche.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/05.jpg\" alt=\"05\" width=\"309\" height=\"550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.olympiade-der-koeche.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/05.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.olympiade-der-koeche.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/02\/05-169x300.jpg 169w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 309px) 100vw, 309px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2446\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cleaning Control during the IKA 2016.
