Zusammenfassung: | A continuous cooking process is disclosed that mimics the U-shaped temperature-time profile produced by a batch kettle fried potato chip operation. Potato slices are placed into hot oil in a flume portion of a continuous fryer. The potato slices exit the flume into an upstream portion of the fryer. Cooling oil is injected to the upstream portion of the continuous fryer to continuously achieve the trough portion of the U-shaped temperature-time profile. The potato slices are then further fried in the downstream portion of the fryer in a region having an increased hot oil temperature. The increased hot oil temperature occurs by injecting hot oil into the downstream portion. The temperature of injected hot oil can be controlled by the exit moisture content of the potato slices. |
