0:18 Use deep fryer while placed on stovetop (venting is better) 1:00 Use deep fryer on rimmed baking sheet (mess prevention) 1:39 Do NOT place wet-battered items directly into the basket -- submerge basket first (prevent sticking) 2:38 Do NOT overload basket with frozen items (temp loss) 3:37 Be strategic with your oil use (oil economy)

I just use coffee filters, a large funnel, and a temperature resistant container. Heating the oil up, or letting it cool down to around 150 degrees lowers the oil's viscosity, making it easier and faster to filter. You can scrape the crud at the bottom right into the filter.

I have a couple of basket type deep fryers but now we mostly use a wok for deep frying. Works great, is inexpensive to buy and works great. A spider basket gets everything out of the wok very quickly. We use a wire rack and paper towels to drain off excess oil before serving. Pretty hard to beat.

Don't crowd OR don't cook frozen. I find food fries much better when thawed first. You get a much better consistent temp throughout it as well. Every year after Thanksgiving we have a Fryday. Yeah, I spelled that right. We use the heck out of the peanut oil before we dump it out from frying a turkey. Bring that bad boy to 400 degrees, thaw everything out and fry the heck out of everything we can get our hands on. We've discovered some amazing things like frying sliced pepperoni, yum!
@UncleScottsKitchen Жыл бұрын
Wow - I like that idea. I was just typing about turkey frying oil above. There is always a ton of oil left over from a turkey fry and I have no idea what to do with it, because it isn't going to last until the next Thanksgiving.
@MrManDiller 3 ай бұрын
I recommend using lard. It's safer and healthier for multiple uses than seed oil. Also it's easier to clean up if you let it solidify you can just scoop it out of the fryer straight into the trash can.

Bump up the tempreture 25 to 50 degrees before you drop your frozen foods and then once the food is bubbling drop the trempreture back to the correct cooking trempreture.

Excellent. What type of fryer would you recommend for doing fish filets (fresh/not frozen)? Was leaning towards the Granpappy until I saw your review that it's better for frozen foods.

Why not simply use a pot with oil in it and a strainer of the appropriate size? I like the strategic approach that you've described. The prices in stores now are beyond insane, so economizing is always a handy tip. Thanks.
@trcass1 Жыл бұрын
great tips. when you reuse the oil, what do you use to transfer it back to the oil jug. do you filter it?
@UncleScottsKitchen Жыл бұрын
I use a filter funnel. If you let the oil sit in the fryer for a few hours and let it cool all the way down, most of the particulate matter will settle to the bottom. Then pour the oil off the top through the filter funnel AND make sure you don't pour the gunk at the bottom through, and you can get nice clean oil.

Every kitchen that's ever been in a home I've lived in the vent on the hood over the stove just blows air out directly above the vent it isn't exhausted outside of the house you're just going to be blowing the greasy air to a different spot and greasing up and creating buildup on that fan making that fan less efficient

Sorry for my ignorance lol, when you say cleaner foods would that be things not wet battered? Love your videos 👍
@UncleScottsKitchen Жыл бұрын
I should be clearer! Cleaner would be things like a French fry... no batter, doesn't leave a lot of gunk in the oil, etc., as opposed to a chicken finger with buttermilk in the batter which leaves a lot of hunk in the oil and turns it dark.

@@UncleScottsKitchen I don't even know how many gallons mine is. 35 pounds. $54 and that's during thanksgiving so naturally it's inflated. If you go outside of that, today for example, it's cheaper. I want to say $50 the last time I looked at it. This is SoCal where everything is nuts right now. Compared to just 5 years ago when it was $35! Sheesh!

@UncleScottsKitchen Жыл бұрын
You can definitely fry with a dutch oven on your stovetop, but I like the fryers for their temp control and thermostats. You don't have to use a candy thermometer and fiddle with the burner as much... the fryers do a good job at maintaining a temp. It's not as big of a deal if you are just cooking one batch of fries or something like that, but if I am cooking eight baskets of chicken in a row, it really helps having that temp control. I also like having the basket, and some of them have oil storage too. Mine seem to all top out at 375, so even if you get distracted and walk away, the temp won't go above that and you won't start a fire, but if you walk away from a dutch oven (phone rings doorbell, etc., you can run into trouble). And they're fun!

@UncleScottsKitchen Жыл бұрын
I think it depends on how often you eat it... if I eat it once a week or every two weeks, I like it. If it eat it much more, I start to feel as greasy as the food. On a different matter, over in Denmark, if you know, how much does a Big Mac cost at McDonald's (for the sandwich alone and also for a meal with fries and drink)? I visited Denmark over ten years ago and I remember it seeming expensive, but lately I have been reading that McD's costs more in the USA now. Trying to get some data!
