Henny Penny first introduced commercial pressure frying to the food service industry more than 50 years ago. Frying under pressure enables lower cooking temperatures for longer oil life, and faster cooking times to meet peak demand. Pressure also seals in food’s natural juices and reduces the amount of oil absorbed into product.
Today, Henny Penny pressure fryers continue to lead the industry in performance, durability, and innovation.
The Henny Penny 500 / 600 models recover temperature very quickly through extremely efficient heat exchange, producing among the industry’s lowest average exhaust gas temperatures. Fast recovery translates into higher throughput, lower energy costs, and longer frying oil life.
