I thought that was the basis for saying that food (eggs, meat, etc) must

A common temperature for re-heating partially cooked chilled stuff is 190C
for say maybe 20 minutes in an oven. And any liquid in the foodstuff comes
out boiling. I don't think 62 C is anything like enough. Could be wrong,
though. ;-)
