Clear Coating for French Fries

PenBind 190 is a clear coating product for french fries that is designed to allow for increased holding time after finish-fry operations at fast food restaurants, regardless of the restaurant or store's finished-fry handling procedures. Created from potato starch, the ingredient is said to offer consumers a crisp, tender bite over time without product toughness. According to the supplier, french fry manufacturers benefit from the product's reduced ingredient cost, lower coat weights, and the ability to accommodate high speed plant processing operations.
