摘要:
A method is disclosed which reduces the oil content of a potato chip. Themethod teaches that a steeper, fastertemperature drop upon initial introduction of the potato slice to the fryer,followed by a longer period of exposure to lower temperaturesbefore increasing to standard frying temperatures, reduces oil content of apotato chip. The invention further discloses apre-treatment method which involves submerging the potatoes in a hot waterbath which results in decreased oil content. Additionally, theinvention discloses a post-treatment method involving subjecting the potatochip to superheated steam that further reduces oilcontent. The two pre and post-treatment methods, combined with the primarytemperature scheme method for reducing oil content,yield a potato chip with significantly reduced oil content.
