Abstract
A dry coating composition for imparting the texture, taste and appearance of batter fried foods to baked foodstuffs comprising 10 to 50% by weight binding agents, the binding agents containing egg white solids and gelatin, and 15 to 70% by weight bulking agents, the bulking agents containing pre-fried crumbs and/or cereal crumbs or fines. A well balanced proportion of egg white solids and gelatin provides a uniform, continuous, cohesive film that closely resembles the inner layer of a batter fried product and acts as a binder for the other coating ingredients to help retain moisture.
