Flour coating is a versatile culinary staple made primarily from wheat flour, often combined with seasonings like salt, pepper, herbs, or spices to enhance flavor. Commonly used in cuisines worldwide, it forms a crispy, golden outer layer for fried or baked foods, including chicken, fish, and vegetables. Originating from traditional cooking methods, flour coating provides texture and acts as a barrier to preserve moisture during cooking. Nutritionally, plain flour coating is a source of carbohydrates but lacks significant fiber or protein. Depending on preparation, it may be high in sodium or fats if fried in oil or paired with heavily seasoned mixtures. Whole-grain or alternative flours, such as almond or chickpea flour, can offer healthier options, providing added nutrients like fiber and protein. While a staple in many dishes, moderation is key, especially when aiming for balanced meals or managing calorie intake.
