The Glazed and Amazed: Innovation & Legacy
At Parker Food Group, innovation is central to our artisanal hot panning capabilities, bringing a touch of culinary magic to a wide range of products. From nuts and seeds to grains, our hot panning process ensures a perfect blend of texture, flavor, and visual appeal.
Parker’s Legacy in Hot Panning
Since our founding in the early 20th century, hot panning has been a cornerstone of Parker Food Group’s processing capabilities. This artisan process has evolved over the years, allowing us to create a diverse array of products that cater to different tastes and occasions. Whether it’s a simple glazed walnut for your breakfast muffin, a cranberry oatmeal cluster for a mid-morning snack, or bourbon praline pecans for your evening ice cream, our hot panning technique enhances flavor profiles and adds a unique crunch.
The Hot Panning Process
Hot panning, also known as fire roasting, involves adding a thin, crunchy sugar-shell coating to the center of an ingredient by applying heat during the traditional panning process. This is done using state-of-the-art gas-fired rotating copper pans to ensure consistent temperature and quality.
Key Benefits of Hot Panning:
Visual Distinction: Each bite offers a unique visual appeal.
Enhanced Texture and Flavor: Adds a delightful crunch and enriches flavors.
Cost-Effective Customization: Allows for high levels of customization without significant cost increases.
