Droplets of an aqueous, flour-based batter are deep fat fried in vegetable oil. These particles are used as a component of a coating mix which is designed to impart a fried taste, texture and appearance to baked foodstuffs.

Processing for preparing a coating mix containing a fried component

A method for frying comestibles comprising frying the comestible in a frying medium containing an oil or fat and an amount of an emulsifier effective to foam the oil or fat during frying. The emulsifiers can be added to the frying medium as part of a dry coating mix which is coated onto the comestible prior to frying.

Foam frying

A bread crumb coating composition which, when coated onto a batter-coated comestible and then baked, imparts the resultant comestible with the taste, texture and appearance of a fried comestible. The bread crumb coating composition comprises bread crumbs consisting essentially of wheat flour, yeast and salt and having an elongated, porous and striated shape and structure, and a particle size wherein at least a majority of the crumbs by weight are retained on a USS 20 mesh screen after passing a USS 5 mesh screen, but not more than 10% of the crumbs by weight are retained on a USS 5 mesh screen. The bread crumbs are uniformly browned, and have an edible oil applied onto their surface.
