DEEP FRYING GUIDE – Fresh or Uncooked Foods
Fresh indicates food prepared from a recipe or purchased
fresh, not frozen. Read package label to determine if
prepared, packaged foods are NOT precooked. If frozen, do
not thaw; place foods directly from package into preheated
oil. If there are ice granules around prepared foods, set
pieces on a paper towel and pat dry. Moist vegetables
will cause the oil to splatter.
Frying times may vary because of food temperature,
quantity and size of pieces. Best results are obtained when
food is cooked in small batches and size of pieces is
uniform. Check deep-fried foods at the shortest times given;
deep fry until heated through.
