HOW LONG THE OIL OR FAT LASTS
The level of oil or fat must never fall below the minimum. Every
now and then it must be completely changed. The life of the oil
or fat depends on what foods are being fried. Food coated in
breadcrumbs, for example, dirties the oil more than simple fry-
ing. As with any deep fryer, the oil or fat deteriorates after being
heated a number of times! Therefore, even if used correctly, it
should be completely changed on a regular basis.
FRYING NON-FROZEN FOOD
Never overll the basket, as this may cause a sudden drop in the
temperature of the oil and thus greasier and less uniform frying.
Check that the food is sliced into thin, even pieces.
If the slices are too thick, the foodwill not be well cooked in-
side, despite its appearance, while even slices will be perfectly
cooked at the same time.
Carefully dry the food before immersing it in the oil or fat, to
avoid oil being sprayed; furthermore, wet food will be less crisp
after cooking (especially potatoes).
Foods with a high water content (sh, meat, vegetables) should
be crumbed before frying, making sure the excess our or
breadcrumbs are removed before immersing the food in the oil.
Whencookingfoodinbatter,youshouldrstimmersethebas-
ket empty.
Then, when the set temperature has been reached, immerse
the food directly in the hot oil to avoid the batter sticking to the
basket.
Whenreferringtothefollowingtable,pleasekeepinmindthat
the cooking times and temperatures are approximate, and must
be adjusted according to the quantity of food and personal
tastes.
