Helpful Hints
✤ When breading foods, use commercial breading, finely ground bread or cracker crumbs, corn meal, a mixture of corn meal and
flour, pancake mix, or prepared bread mixes.
✤ Use only heat-resistant utensils in the fryer as most plastics or rubber will become damaged from the hot oil. Do not leave metal
utensils in the fryer as they will become hot.
✤ After each use, strain oil through a filter or a double thickness of cheesecloth to remove the accumulated residue.
✤ It is time to replace the cooking oil if any of the following occur: the oil is dark in color, has an unpleasant odor, smokes when it is
heated, or foams excessively during frying.
✤ The number of times the cooking oil can be reused will depend on the food that is fried in it. For example, the oil will need to be
replaced more often if fish, chicken, or food coated with bread or cracker crumbs is fried frequently.
Questions and Answers
whenever I make battered foods, they stick to the basket. what can I do?
Battered foods work best when fried without the basket. When using the fryer without the basket, a slotted heat-resistant scoop may be
used to add or remove foods. These heat-resistant scoops may be purchased on the web at www.GoPresto.com.
Sometimes my fryer won't heat up or it stops working while I'm frying. why?
If your fryer fails to preheat or if the cooking process stops while you are frying, check cord assembly to assure plug is properly
attached to the appliance (see Fig. E, page 3).
My food doesn't get as crisp as I'd like and sometimes is unevenly cooked. what am I doing wrong?
you may have overfilled the basket. If too much food is fried at the same time, the food will not get crisp. Do not fill the basket
beyond the rim for most foods. For raw fries, only fry 2 cups at a time.
If your food is unevenly cooked, you may be frying foods that are not uniform in thickness or size. Try frying foods of equal size and
thickness as they will fry more evenly and at the same speed.
