                                          • Place harina de maiz and potato flakes in the mixing bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
                                          • Pour water over maiz and potato flakes and mix with the paddle attachment until well combined and the dough sticks together.
                                            For 50 servings, mix for 2-3 minutes.
                                            For 100 servings, mix for 3-5 minutes.
                                          • Add mozzarella cheese, black beans, garlic powder, onion, jalapeno, and salt to the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth.
                                          • Preheat combi oven to 500 °F.
                                          • Gather the masa/potato flake mixture and the bean/cheese mixture at the same workstation to start assembling the pupusas.
                                          • Spray each sheet pan with nonstick spray.
                                            For 50 servings, use 5 full-size sheet pans.
                                            For 100 servings, use 9 full-size sheet pans.
                                          • Using a scale, weigh 4 oz of masa dough and use hands to flatten into a pancake by transferring the dough back and forth between flattened hands. Set flattened masa dough aside for use in next step.
                                          • Using a scale, weigh 2 oz of the bean/cheese mixture and roll into a ball. Place the ball in the center of the masa dough pancake.
                                          • Fold the masa dough pancake over the bean/cheese ball and roll entire mixture into a ball with the masa dough around the outside of the ball and the bean/cheese mixture on the inside.
                                          • Use hands to gently flatten the dough ball into a 5-inch pancake by transferring dough back and forth between flattened hands.
                                          • Place pupusa on an oiled sheet pan, fitting 12 pupusas per pan.
                                          • Repeat steps 7 through 11 until all masa dough and bean/cheese mixture is used.
                                          • Spray tops of pupusas with nonstick spray.
                                          • Bake pupusas in a combi oven at 500 °F. Combi oven: combination steam/convection at 500 °F for 7 minutes. Remove pan, flip each pupusa over, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
                                            Critical Control Point: Cook pupusas to internal temperature of 135 °F for at least 15 seconds.
                                          • Cover sheet pans with foil and hold for hot service at 135 °F until ready to serve.
                                          • Combine shredded cabbage and carrots in a 4-inch full-size hotel pan (12” x 20” x 4”).
                                          • Pour warm water over the cabbage mixture and let sit for 5 minutes.
                                          • Drain the cabbage mixture using a colander. Return cabbage and carrots to the hotel pan.
                                          • Add vinegar and oregano to the cabbage mixture and mix well.
                                            Critical Control Point: Cover and refrigerate at 41 °F or lower until ready to serve.
