How do you recommend storing oil after being used like this? Do you have an article or video on this?
@JKenjiLopezAlt2 жыл бұрын
When I deep fry I strain out the oil using a fine mesh skimmer and leave it on the stovetop under the cover to use again. I’ll use it multiple times over the next few weeks until it no longer fries well (it’ll turn foamy and dark), then pour into a sealed container with a funnel and discard. I go through short frying binges like that every few months so I don’t have to deal with the hassle of straining and storing partially-used oil. If you only want to fry once and save the oil, strain through a fine mesh strainer lined with coffee filter set over a bowl. Let it cool then transfer to a sealed container and store in the fridge until ready to use again. Fry oil reuse life varies a great deal depending on what you’re frying. Typically the more small particulate matter falls into it the shorter the lifespan. EDIT: as some people mentioned below, you can also use the used fry oil for normal sautéing or searing or stir-fry. If I have a pan of used deep fry oil on my stovetop I’ll typically just grab a bit with my wok spatula or spoon if I need some oil while I’m cooking other dishes.

@@JKenjiLopezAlt I don't know if it's my temperature or what, but when I fry chicken for the household, it usually gets dirty and murky after the first use. We're talking maybe 4 or 5 chicken thighs the same size that you used in this video. I've tried to strain it and keep it, but the color is already so far from the "normal" color of my oil and I've always been told that's a strong indicator that the oil should be disposed of.

@@NarutoFreak47 Check just in case if it a high smoke point oil, but yes, it's probably the temperature of the oil. Going over 350F will rapidly deteriorate it. You sometimes need to get to 360F, like to get nice crispy fries, but try to avoid as much as possible frying for long period of time at that temp. For example for fries, it should take no more than 1 or 2 minutes, only to crisp them up (considering you already fried them once at a lower temp to cook them).

So I actually made these tonight, finished it just now. Used pickles as per the "original" recipe as Kenji described (though I'm jealous of the peppers, I want to try that next). Didn't have self-rising flour, but made my own also per Kenji's recommendation. Flour, salt and pepper, spoon of baking powder. I let the chicken breast soak in pickle juice (from my jar of pickle chips) for about 3 hours. Took the breast out and slightly thickened the pickle juice with a big heaping spoon of greek yogurt stirred in. Coated the chicken in the wet, dredged it in the dry. Also did the "extra cragglies" trick by pouring some of the wet mixture into the flour mixture and stirring it a bit before dredging. I would recommend pan frying it as per Kenji's instructions, do not do what I did, but I grabbed some metal tongs and actually deep fried the whole chicken breast. I made sure to pull it out if things looked even slightly on the unruly side, then re-submerged. I really babied it and paid close attention to it. After probably 6-8 minutes, the browning was beautiful so I called it done. I let it rest for about 5 minutes just to make sure carryover heat kept the thicker bits going just in case. Anyways, I sandwiched it all up with pickle chips and some toasted bread (wish I had some buns, but it wasn't a big deal). Was SUPER delicious. If you like pickles and fried chicken, it's heavenly. Really "present" tang from the greek yogurt too. Outside was crispy. Inside was perfectly cooked, not undercooked anywhere, nice and juicy. I'm absolutely doing this again soon. Just posted this because I figure so many people on cooking videos just say "I'm hungry, wish I had this" so I wanted to be one of the few to say "I actually made this!"

@austin48552 жыл бұрын
Before you try, study up on the fundamentals of how hot oil behaves. If you understand the basics of what oil will and will not do when you handle it right, you'll have no reason to be scared of it. For example, temperature: Oil that is too hot will be more explosive when you first put food in. Use a thermometer and keep your oil to no more than 375-400 *before* the food is added so that it drops to 325-350 after, and you'll never have to worry about the oil jumping up at you or rapidly boiling over. If it drops more than 50 degrees, you are probably trying to cook too much at once, which is both a safety hazard and also likely to make your breading soggy. Kenji suggests 425 at first and then adjusts down to 375, but personally I would just not ever go above 400 if you're a beginner. I can promise you that if you add reasonably dry food to oil that is less than 400 degrees in a vessel plenty big enough, it is never going to do anything crazy, just bubble around the edges of the food. Keeping the oil below 400 also reduces breakdown and vaporization that coats every surface in your kitchen with that burnt oil smell. I can't think of any reason to fry at home in oil hotter than 400 degrees. I'd also stress that it is more important than any other cooking method to start with a clean workstation. Have your ingredients ready and nothing out that you don't need. Don't take my word for it though, do your own research and get a good vessel (like a carbon steel wok) and a thermometer for the oil temp, and enjoy your chicken :)

spicy pickles is the way to go fs. if you use bread and butter, golden NC BBQ sauce is a good combo for a sweet and savory style

Mouthwatering. good job Kenji. Your use of Pedantic also made me chuckle. I can only imagine the "smoke" you get from losers who are so critical. I will always be a fan and admire and look forward to more content from you, my friend.
