I work in a pastry kitchen that makes granola for wholesale. The product demand is increasing and the process of constantly stirring the granola is very labor intensive. For each batch, we get 8 sheet pans that need to be stirred about 5 times each throughout the toasting/ cooling process. We end up making a batch per day on average and there is more if we were to step up the production. Can anyone think of a more efficient way of doing this? Any ideas are very welcome, no matter how Macgyver-like they seem. Has anyone else dealt with this issue? Is there a tool out there that would cook and stir this at the same time
I'm not sure that there is a better way to do this than to suck it up and stir, but I figured somebody might have some insight
Thanks a lot.
