ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a process for preparing frozen potato products, wherein raw potatoes are cut into a desired shape. The particular improvement which comprises the present invention is the added step of passing the potato pieces through an aqueous solution of food grade color, i.e. annatto or yellow dye. Such treatment provides potato pieces having a light golden yellow color upon emerging from said color solution. The colored pieces may then be additionally cooked and frozen for packaging and sale. Final preparation for consumption of the pieces is by reheating for a few minutes in an oven or deep frying.
