Grocery shopping and grabbing meals on-the-go aren’t as simple in a world changed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Now more than ever, people are looking for ways to make their lives easier. As a result, takeout has become increasingly popular and fast-food or dine-in restaurants aren’t the only places that can capitalize on this rise in demand. Imagine the relief of a grocery shopper who needs to pick up dinner on the way home when they come across a display containing rows of fresh chicken and sides while approaching checkout.

Henny Penny Express Profit Center

With a Henny Penny Express Profit Center (EPC), various business concepts with diverse menus can maximize takeout sales.

We never take a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to our customers. Different sizes, different widths, different shelf configurations… all the options that help you take advantage of impulse purchases throughout the store. Place EPC units as aisle end caps, along walls, or freestanding near checkout lanes.

Henny Penny Receives 2019 Kitchen Innovations Award

By

Henny Penny has received a 2019 Kitchen Innovations (KI) Award from the National Restaurant Association for its Space$aver Team combi.

Unique in the U.S. market, the Space$aver Team combi combines two stacked, independently operated combis in a single frame and shell, with a single power cord and all the serviceable components centralized below. The 22”- wide footprint is topped with an integrated ventless hood using four-stage filtration for grease and vapors requiring no catalytic converter.

The Space$aver Team combi offers the versatility of two separate cabinets with independent, easy-to-use control systems in one integrated platform. Less than 22 inches wide with an integrated hood, the unit can be installed anywhere in the kitchen, and a jointless, one-piece construction makes it easier to install and maintain, unlike traditional stacked units.

The Space$aver Team combi, features a powerful four-stage filtration system to extract smoke, fat and odors — ensuring operators can cook different items simultaneously, without flavor transfer.

“Henny Penny understands operators and is committed to designing products that offer them greater flexibility, consistency and simplicity,” said Ares Marasligiller, Director of Product Strategy at Henny Penny. “Receiving this award speaks to how we are equipping kitchens to efficiently handle back-of-house challenges while addressing the long-term needs of the foodservice industry.”

The KI Awards honor forward-thinking equipment and technologies that increase efficiencies and productivity for back-of-the-house operations. Henny Penny’s recognized product will be on display in booth #4023, as well as the Kitchen Innovations Pavilion, at the 2019 National Restaurant Association Restaurant, Hotel-Motel Show held May 18-21 in Chicago.

It’s Time to Move to a 30 Pound Fryer

By

It’s 2019 – are you still using a 50 pound fryer?

If the answer’s yes, it may be time to consider evaluating the benefits of a 30-lb. fryer.

 

Operators can expect four advantages over a 50-lb. fryer:

  • Oil Savings – A drop in 20 lbs. means 40 percent less oil is needed to cook the same amount of product. Additionally, a 30-lb. fryer can provide twice the oil life than a 50 lb. unit, meaning greater, hard savings in oil costs. Less oil, more frequent filtration and auto top off combine to create maximum oil extension.

 

  • Product Quality – With frequent filtration and automatic top-off, the oil “sweet spot” will last longer, creating a more ideal environment for frying food and creating a higher quality product, consistently. By maintaining a constant level of oil (which is managed by vat sensors) operators will also achieve a higher quality of fried coverage around the product and a more consistent product coming out of the fryer. Read more about F5 food quality here. 

 

  • Health-wise – Extended oil life has positive health ramifications for customers, as well. Often with a 50-lb. fryer, operators will try to push their oil life beyond its natural expiration time. In extreme cases, if extended too long, oil can even produce carcinogens and increase food’s cholesterol levels. With a 30-lb. fryer, oil savings will drive pro-active oil management.  Having a team that watches oil quality and reacts to it will translate into better tasting and safer oil.

 

  • Easy – By transitioning to a 30-lb fryer, gone are the days of manually opening and closing of multiple drain valves and turning on/off pump motors just to filter the fryer’s oil. Instead, with the push of a button, oil is filtered automatically in just four minutes. This easy processes, mean simpler training for your team and creates less interruptions for regular cooking operations.

 

Cut Your Fryer Oil Use In Half With Henny Penny Prime Filter Powder

By

What is Prime Filter Powder?

 

Prime Filter Powder is a safe, pure white compound that extends frying oil life. The powder reduces the frequency of oil purchases by as much as 50%! It does this by removing both solids and dissolved impurities from used oil, meeting the food-grade specifications set forth by the FDA, NSF and the JECFA of the WHO.

How does it work?

 

  • When circulating frying oil with Prime Filter Powder during a polish filter, the powder particles are activated. It acts like a magnet that attracts and removes food debris, and extracts soluble liquid impurities, dissolved tastes and odors that spoil fried food.
  • By attaching these impurities together, the compounds become too large to pass through the fryer filter and cannot return to the fry vat with the clean oil.
  • The powder clumps on top of the filter paper/pad, the clean oil passes through the normal filtering process and is returned to the vat for use.

What can Prime do for you?

Savings you can see!

Reducing total polar materials.

Total Polar Materials (TPMs) are a chemical measure of oil degradation. They have been correlated to the taste and odor of fried foods and many government bodies have enacted regulations limiting the amount of TPMs in cooking oil. Prime Filter Powder attacks the molecular bonds that form to create TPMs which in turn reduces the TPM values in oil.

  • Soaps (Cleaning Agents)
