The invention discloses a low-oil-absorption fried food hanging paste and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of
food processing and making. The hanging paste comprises the following components in parts by weight: 10-20 parts of
corn starch, 15-20 parts of highland
barley flour, 10-15 parts of
rice flour, 1-2 parts of edible salt, 0.5-1 part of
baking powder and 50-60 parts of drinking water. The highland
barley flour and the
rice flour are compounded to replace
wheat flour used in a traditional pasting formula, compact gel formed after
high amylose in the
rice flour is gelatinized can seal pores after being cooled, beta-
glucan in the highland
barley flour absorbs water to increase the
viscosity, the pores of the rice
starch gel are filled, a continuous oil-resistant layer is formed, and the pasty effect is improved. In the frying process, a denser and smoother surface can be formed,
grease permeation is hindered, the
water binding capacity and stability of hanging paste are improved, the hanging paste rate is increased, a
starch-beta-
glucan colloid barrier is formed on the surface of food, the content of permeated
grease and the total
oil content in the hanging paste after frying are reduced,
grease intake is reduced, and the
food quality is improved. The requirements of consumers on low-oil healthy foods are met.
