Abstract

A process for simulating the taste and texture of deep fat fried potatoes has been developed. The process consists of having the potatoes washed, peeled, trimmed, sorted, cut, blanched, or otherwise processed in conventional manner, and thereafter starch coated, oil soaked, par-fried and frozen. This process produces an improved potato product that more closely approximates deep fat fried foods. Most preferrably the potato comestible will be heated on a heat transferring apparatus.
