Abstract
A water dispersible coating composition for fat-fried foods contains a starch, a stabilizing agent, an acid salt and a leavening agent. The improvement is the use of a combination of at least one modified cornstarch and rice flour, in respective weight proportions of about 10:1 to 1:1, as the starch. The composition may also contain a dextrin, a high amylose starch, modified potato starch and a vegetable oil. The composition is dispersed in an aqueous medium having from about 20 to 90 weight percent of the composition for application to a food prior to fat frying.
