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.

A combination of pressure, heat, and time is automatically controlled to produce the optimum in a tasty, appealing product.

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 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 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.
