Product quality of kaledo, a local food of Palu City Indonesia
Food safety is an important issue in the incidence of foodborne diseases in society. Kaledo is one of the “must-try” traditional foods of Palu City, Indonesia. The main ingredients used for making this dish are beef and cow’s trotters, which are highly susceptible to microbiological, physical, and chemical contamination. This cross-sectional study aimed to analyze the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) in one of the culinary businesses in Palu City. The GMP assessment was carried out using the self-assessment questionnaire developed by Food Supplements Europe. The results of this study indicated that Kaledo X Food Stall still had not implemented GMP. However, HACCP analysis showed a critical control point (CCP) in the cooking process of Kaledo, i.e., at the time of boiling the meat and bones.
