Abstract
Cooking apparatus is provided for cooking food products in a continuous manner whereby the moisture formed during the process of cooking is removed from the cooking oil and the time-temperature profile within the cooker along the cooking path may be adapted to substantially conform to a linear or non-linear curve. The apparatus provides a novel process for cooking specialty snack foods having lowered oil content.
