What it is
Predusted refers to a coating applied to food before cooking, typically a mixture of flour, starches, and seasonings. This coating helps create a crispy texture and adhere other ingredients, such as breadcrumbs or batter, to the food item.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use predusting to improve the texture and appearance of fried or baked foods. It acts as a binder for breading and contributes to a desirable crispy crust. It is commonly found in frozen fried chicken, fish fillets, and other breaded convenience meals.
Health notes
Predusting ingredients are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. These ingredients are primarily carbohydrates and are not typically associated with significant health concerns at the levels used in food. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated many common food starches and flours, but specific evaluations for 'predusted' as a preparation method are not typically made.
Allergen info
Depending on the specific ingredients used in the predust mixture, allergens such as wheat or soy may be present. It is important to check the product's ingredient list for specific allergen declarations. Gluten may also be present if wheat flour is used.
