 Batters consist of dried ingredients such as flour or cornstarch in conjunction with liquids such as milk, water or other beverages.Breading can be as simple as dusting the food in flour or, more commonly, what is called the "standard breading procedure", which involves first dusting the food in flour (taking care to shake off the excess), then dipping it in beaten eggs, and finally putting it into bread crumbs (or some other form of outer coating).The food is seasoned with salt and pepper prior to applying any coating.
