Title: Method of preparing a frozen, battered food product
Inventor: FISZMAN DAL SANTO SUSANA
IPC: A23L13/00

Abstract: The process starts with the pre-dusting of the food
product to be batter-coated, followed by the application
to said dusted food of a prepared batter, the composition
of which batter comprises a cellulose derivative that
coagulates in a hot water bath or in the presence of
water vapour. The process continues with the heating of
the coagulated, batter-coated food using a traditional,
microwave or infrared oven, so that the coagulated batter
coating layer does not melt on cooling, and concludes
with the cooling and freezing of the above product. 
     The object of the invention is to eliminate pre-frying,
which is the most problematic stage of the
classic batter coating processes.
