SECTION 1. INTRODUCTION
1-1. PRESSURE FRYER
The Henny Penny Pressure Fryer is a basic unit of food processing
equipment. It has found wide application in institutional and commercial
food service operations.
P-H-T
A combination of pressure, heat, and time is automatically controlled to
produce the optimum in a tasty, appealing product.
Pressure
Pressure is basic to this method of food preparation. This pressure is
developed from the natural moisture of the food. The patented lid traps
this moisture and uses it as steam. Because the steam builds rapidly, the
greater part of the natural juices are retained within the food. An
exclusive deadweight assembly vents excess steam from the pot and
maintains constant low, live steam pressure.
Heat
Heat generated is another important factor of the pressure fryer. The
normal suggested frying operation is between 315 and 325°F. This
results in energy savings and extends the frying life of the shortening.
Energy savings is realized due to the unit’s short frying time, low tem-
perature, and heat retention of the stainless steel frypot.
Time
Time is important because the shorter the time involved in frying foods
results in additional economies for the user. Foods are table ready in less
time than it would take to fry them in a conventional open-type fryer.
