Title:
【発明の名称】長い保持時間を有するオーブンベークドフレンチフライ
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2002522052
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
Coated French fried potatoes which maintain crispness for at least about 10 minutes. The French fries have at least a 0.1 mm starch-based surface coating and Texture Value of at least about 170 after an extended holding time. The holding time is a measurement based on (1) 4 minutes holding under a heat lamp, (2) 3 minutes holding under a heat lamp in Foodservice serving bags and (3) at least 3 minutes holding in a closed carry-out bag. The par-fries have specific properties which, upon oven-finishing, deliver a unique texture. The coated oven-finished French fries have about 28% to about 50% bulk moisture and from about 8% to about 25% total fat. The par-fried potato strips used to prepare the oven-finished French fried potatoes are coated with a starch suspension. The coating has a low water solubility starch fraction as one of its ingredients. The low water solubility starch fraction has a water solubility index of less than about 30%. The par-fries can be finished in a conventional oven in less than about 10 minutes. The time required to finish the par-fries in a forced air convection oven is less than about 5 minutes. The coated par-fried potato strips have a bulk moisture of about 30% to about 55%, and a total fat of about 6% to about 25%.
