Fabricated snack food containing anti-sticking agent

摘要

Snack food products, such as potato crisps or chips, are fabricated from dough that is processed into uncooked snack chips for cooking in a form fryer. Form fryers utilize conveyors that generally employ metal that contacts and retains the snack chips while being passed through an oil bath for frying. With the use of anti-sticking agent such as lecithin, the conveyors of the fryer do not need to be cooled prior to contacting the uncooked chips. The anti-sticking agent prevents the chip from adhering to the metal surfaces of a fryer conveyor that would otherwise cause a chip without anti-sticking agent to adhere thereto.
