Once the fryer has reached the set temperature, it is ready for cooking to commence. The set temperature will be displayed on the temperature display panel. Note: the temperature displayed will fluctuate and will not display a static value equal to the set temperature of the thermostat. Lower the filled baskets into the oil carefully and do not over fill them. -
Page 15: Liquid Vegetable Oils
Liquid Vegetable Oils While most vegetable oils are recommended for cooking, many of them are not suitable for deep-frying. Higher temperatures break down the oil faster and by-products often have an unpleasant flavour and may also have an association with increased risk of heart disease. Hardened/Creamed Vegetable Oils These products may have a longer fry life than their liquid oil equivalents, but the components added during the hardening process increase the risk... -
Page 16: Tips On Deep Frying
TIPS ON DEEP FRYING 1. Use thick, straight cut chips (greater than 13mm) or wedges • Thin chips and crinkle chips absorb more oil and therefore use up more oil from the fryer • If the chips are frozen, don’t thaw. Water from thawed chips damages the oil 2. - Page 17 6. Drain food well • Vigorously shake the basket of cooked food twice and hang it for at least 20 seconds over the hot fryer. This returns some oil to the fryer 7. Look for signs of oil degradation • If the oil is damaged (eg dark colour, smoking) discard it all. 8.
