Commercial foodservice kitchens use open fryers instead of pressure fryers for a variety of menu items, including freezer-to-fryer items and foods that float while cooking. There are lots of reasons you might go with an open fryer; they produce a crispier product, increase throughput, and allow plenty of freedom for customization. Whether your goal is saving money on oil, maintaining consistent food quality, increasing capacity, or simply introducing an all-purpose ‘workhorse’ to your kitchen, we’ve got you covered.

Foodservice operators know that one of their most valuable resources is time — and any solution that helps free up employees to manage peak periods is priceless in a busy kitchen. That’s the true benefit of having reliable holding equipment that keeps food ready to serve until it’s needed, giving employees the ability to prepare food ahead of time in anticipation of the coming rush.

Pressure frying produces the most consistently flavorful product and is faster than any other method when cooking in higher volumes. With a pressure fryer, you’re ensuring that moisture and flavor will be sealed in while excess cooking oil will be sealed out — yielding a healthier, more delicious final product. It’s the ideal way to cook freshly breaded, bone-in items like chicken or other proteins with natural juices.

Combi ovens are an excellent choice for high-volume kitchens where menu choices are varied, but space is always a premium. By combining the ability to do multiple types of cooking in one unit, you can better utilize valuable floor space by eliminating the need to have multiple pieces of hardware. All in all, this kitchen essential gives you the flexibility to accomplish several tasks at once. Combi ovens are also faster than regular convection cooking and result in less protein shrinkage.
