ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is described for use in forming a flexible food item into a rigid bowl-shaped shell during submersive cooking which includes a support member and a basket with a base portion and a side wall portion. The apparatus further has structure for positioning the food item to be formed between the support member and the base portion of the basket during operation. The apparatus further has structure which permits folding of at least a portion of an outer periphery of the food item which extends beyond the base portion when the food item is operatively positioned between the support member and the basket. The apparatus permits folding by the oil during submersion of at least a portion of the outer periphery of the food item from a position away from the side wall portion of the basket to a position adjacent the side wall portion of the basket. A method is also described for cooking a flexible food item in a container of oil to form a rigid bowl-shaped shell by permitting the oil to fold at least a portion of an outer periphery of the food item relative to a center portion of the food item.
