Food preparation disinfection treatment methods

A food preparation disinfection treatment method disinfects fruits or vegetables, and food preparation surfaces during the preparation of a food item in a restaurant environment, the method comprising the steps of:

• creating an ozonated concentrate liquid by way of an aqueous ozone generator, the aqueous ozone generator receives a water source and generates from the water source the ozonated concentrate liquid;
• removing one or more of the fruit or one or more of the vegetable from a prepackaged produce packaging, each of the fruit and the vegetable comprises a plant tissue;
• oxygenating the plant tissue by immersion and delaying drying for an oxygenation treatment time, enhancing metabolic processes of the plant tissue;
• returning the fruit or the vegetable to the prepackaged produce packaging for storage until needed for preparing the food item;
• disinfecting, when ready to prepare the food item, the fruit or the vegetable by an immersion in the ozonated concentrate liquid for a disinfection treatment time;
• disinfecting one or more of a food preparation surface by misting the ozonated concentrate liquid onto the food preparation surface and waiting a surface disinfection treatment time before using the food preparation surface;
• neutralizing odor of the plant tissue by misting the ozonated concentrate liquid onto the plant tissue, at a periodic mist interval and for each of the periodic mist interval, a mist duration treatment time;
• and
• preparing the food item on the food preparation surface, the food item comprises the fruit or the vegetable.

• preparing the food item on the food preparation surface, the food item comprises the fruit or the vegetable;
• and
• maintaining disinfection and oxygenation of the plant tissue by misting the food item, with the ozonated concentrate liquid, after preparation and prior to consumption of the food item by a consumer.

• creating an ozonated concentrate liquid by way of an aqueous ozone generator, the aqueous ozone generator receives a water source and generates from the water source the ozonated concentrate liquid;
• disinfecting one or more of a fruit or one or more of a vegetable by filling a prepackaged produce packaging, which comprises the fruit or the vegetable, with the ozonated concentrate liquid, immersing the fruit or the vegetable in the ozonated concentrate liquid for a disinfection treatment time, each of the fruit and the vegetable comprises a plant tissue;
• oxygenating the plant tissue by draining the prepackaged produce packaging and delaying before drying the fruit or the vegetable for an oxygenation treatment time, enhancing metabolic processes of the plant tissue;
• disinfecting, when ready to prepare the food item, one or more of a food preparation surface by misting the ozonated concentrate liquid onto the food preparation surface and waiting a surface disinfection treatment time before using the food preparation surface;
