Abstract

The addition of a small amount of a lecithin-in-water suspension to the formulation of dough-based fried snack foods improves dough transfer, sheeting and cutting, and significantly reduces clumping during frying, without the rapid buildup of free fatty acids, and without significant darkening of frying oil normally associated with the frying of foods containing lecithin.
