*Hook to Cook Pre-Dip when mixed as directed makes a superior adhesion batter forming an intermediate binding layer that produces a healthier entrée by preventing oil/fat absorption. Pre-Dip also seals in juices/moisture and nutrients, increases adhesion, crispness and prevents blow off during frying. Pre-Dip will also help food stay crisp longer when kept warm or on the table, and with its superb blend of flour and spice will enhance the flavors of any additional coatings giving you the results of a professional chef. Pre-Dip is highly recommended to be used with all Hook to Cook Premium Poatings.
