A batter is a liquid mixture of ingredients often used to stick crumbs and breading on a product and can also be used as a stand-alone feature to coat a product. Batters Are Designed For Good Adhesion, Crispiness, And Coating Stability.
Pre-dust is a powder that is applied to the Product Prior To The Batter Or Coating Process. Predusts Are Used To Improve the Adhesion Of A Coating In General, To Improve The Yield, To Add Flavor, And To Improve Crispiness.
Batters And Coatings Originate From The “Schnitzel”, A Product That Appeared During The 16th Century In Vienna. According To The Original Recipe, The Meat Was Put Into Flour, Dipped In Liquid Eggs, And Then Coated With Breadcrumbs. From This Original Recipe, Battered And Coated Products Have Come A Long Way, And Many New Products Have Been Developed. Batters And Coatings Provide Functionality Such As Adhesion, Texture, Appearance And Yield.
After A Pre-Dust And Batter Process, the coating material is added to the product before further processing (e.g., Cooking). Many Varieties Of Crumbs Breadings are Designed For Perfect Coating In Further Processing Steps, such as (Deep)Fryers, Ovens, And Microwaves.
Coating Of Meat, Fish, And Plant-Based Products Has Several Advantages. Coatings make it possible to seal in moisture and fat, increase yields, improve or modify Flavors, and create crispy textures and attractive surfaces. Optimize Your Coating Systems By Choosing The Right Ingredients For Your Coated, Battered, And Breaded Products And Get Better Seal-In Of Moisture, Crispy Textures, And Attractive Surfaces.
