Role in food

What it is

This is a mixture of water and other ingredients, often including flour, starches, and leavening agents, used to coat foods before they are fried or baked. The predusting step helps the batter adhere better to the food item.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use predusted and battered coatings to improve the texture, flavor, and appearance of foods, especially frozen products like chicken nuggets, fish sticks, and onion rings. The coating provides a crispy exterior when cooked.

Health notes

Water is essential for life and is not regulated as a food additive in the same way as other ingredients. It is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated water's safety. No specific health concerns are associated with typical water consumption.

Allergen info

Water itself is not a major allergen. However, other ingredients in the predust or batter may contain allergens like wheat or soy.
