Filled cooked dough product, its frozen counterpart and method of reheating same

摘要

A composite filled uncooked dough product is prepared by completely enclosing a yeast-leavened, sugar-containing dough around a cooked freeze/thaw stable viscous filling comprised of particulate food ingredients and a sauce therefor containing a water-binding carbohydrate The product is cooked for consumption to a degree sufficient to develop in the dough a film crust and a tender interior crumb structure. The cooked product is particularly adapted to be frozen for reheating at the time of consumption. A reheating procedure comprised of conventional oven heating either simultaneous with or following microwave heating returns the frozen product to the appearance and texture of the freshly- cooked product.
