Henny Penny Breading FAQs
What makes Henny Penny classic breading different from other breading mixes?
Henny Penny classic breading is designed specifically for commercial fryers and high-volume kitchens. It delivers a consistent, golden crunch and flavour that holds up through holding times, making it ideal for quick-service, convenience and restaurant operations. Its balance of texture, seasoning, and moisture retention is what separates it from everyday breading blends.
Is Henny Penny classic breading made in Canada?
Yes! DSL’s Henny Penny Classic (PHT) Breading is produced locally in Edmonton, Alberta, ensuring fresh, high-quality supply for foodservice operations across Western Canada. Local manufacturing means faster delivery and reliable stock availability.
What foods can I use Henny Penny classic breading on?
While it’s best known for fried chicken and tenders, Henny Penny classic breading works great on fish, pork, vegetables, and plant-based proteins. Many operators also use it for baked or combi-oven items to create a lighter crunch without frying.
Do I need to use a Henny Penny fryer with this breading?
Not necessarily but it’s highly recommended. The breading is formulated to perform best in pressure and open fryers, like Henny Penny’s Evolution Elite or PFE series. When paired with a Henny Penny fryer, you’ll achieve the ideal texture, flavour, and oil retention that makes each batch consistent and profitable.
How should I store my breading mix?
Store your commercial breading mix in a cool, dry area between 7°C and 30°C (45°F to 85°F), away from moisture or heat sources. When properly stored, it has a shelf life of up to 180 days. Always reseal the bag or container to keep it fresh.
What’s the difference between Henny Penny Classic (PHT) and Spicy breading?
The Classic (PHT) breading has a well-balanced, savoury flavour profile suitable for any menu, while the Spicy version adds a bold, peppery kick. Both deliver the same texture and coating performance, so you can offer your customers variety without changing your process.
How do I get the best coating results?
For best results:
– Coat evenly and let the product rest 15–30 minutes before frying to improve adhesion.
– Use fresh oil and maintain proper oil temperature for consistent colour.
– Avoid overcrowding the fryer basket — it affects crispiness.
– These simple steps make a big difference in the quality and yield of your fried products.
Does Henny Penny classic breading contain MSG?
No! Henny Penny Classic Breading contains no added MSG. It’s crafted for full flavour and clean ingredient standards while maintaining the signature crisp finish that foodservice operators love.
