New microwave frying method could make french fries much healthier
A new microwave frying technique developed by researchers at the University of Illinois may reduce the oil absorption in French fries while maintaining their crisp texture. The method combines microwave energy with traditional frying to shorten cooking time and limit oil uptake. This approach could lead to healthier fried foods without compromising taste or texture. The findings suggest that adjusting microwave frequencies can influence how oil and moisture move during cooking, offering a promising way to improve the nutritional profile of popular fried items.
