APPARAT OG FREMGANGSMAADE TIL OPVARMNING AF FOEDEVARER

摘要

Cooking apparatus is provided for cooking food products in a continuous manner whereby the moisture formed during the process of cooking is purged from the cooking oil and the time- temperature profile along the cooking path substantially conforms to a curve having at least one change in sign of slope. The apparatus includes means for withdrawing high-moisture oil from the cooking tank and mixing it with oil heated by a heat exchanger and then returning the mixture to the cooking tank. The relative amounts of the high- moisture oil and the oil heated by the heat exchanger are controlled to give the required time-temperature profile to the oil in the cooking tank.
