Tips and tricks

Tips regarding the deep frying oil or fat

Only use pure vegetable oil or fat which has a high smoking
■
point and which is suitable for deep frying. Suitable oils are
for example peanut, palm or coconut oil. Unsuitable oils are
for example virgin olive oil, soya or wheat germ oil. Avoid
using mixtures of different fats. Observe the manufacturers'
instructions.
After every use of the deep fryer, remove any resulting
■
remainders of food from the oil or fat using a slotted spoon.
Alternatively you can remove the residues by opening the
drain valve. Wait until the deep frying oil or fat has cooled to
at least 40°C.
If you want to reuse the deep frying oil or fat, line a metal
■
sieve with kitchen paper and filter the lukewarm oil or fat
through the paper.
Replace the deep frying oil or fat if you notice an unpleasant
■
smell or taste, if it foams violently, if it starts smoking at 160 -
170°C or if the deep fried food no longer becomes the usual
crispy brown despite the correct temperature setting. The
smoking is not to be confused with rising steam when deep
frying moist food.
After cooling down, close the lid. This avoids pollutants or
■
water getting into the fat.
You can now use the deep-fat fryer again as normal.
Place a heat-resistant container with a capacity of over 4
1.
litres under the drain tap
Open the tap on the underside of the deep-fat fryer and drain
2.
off the used oil/fat.
Note: Drain fat while warm and still liquid. If the fat solidifies
in the tap, you can poke it through with a thin stick (e.g.
handle of a cooking spoon).
Do not pour the oil/fat down the wastewater drain, but dispose
of it at a used oil collection point.

Tips regarding the food

The following are suitable for deep frying: small pieces of
■
meat and fish, vegetables, potatoes, pastries, fruit and
breaded food.
Moist foods such as fish, shellfish, pieces of meat, vegetables
■
or fruit slices must be thoroughly dried.
Foods with a high water content are not suitable for deep
■
frying.

Tips regarding the deep frying

Do not deep fry very large quantities at once so that the oil
■
can circulate and release the heat quickly to the food. Shake
the frying basket with the food to avoid it sticking and to help
the oil circulate.
The food should be completely covered by the deep frying oil
■
or fat. Turn large food items after the first halve of the frying
time or push them down with a second frying basket.
Fill the food into the frying basket on the worktop beside the
■
deep fryer. Do not fill the frying basket directly over the deep
fryer. This will help keep the deep frying oil or fat free from
residues.
Do not salt or season the food above the deep fryer to avoid
■
soiling of the deep frying oil or fat.
Moist or frozen food leads to particularly hefty foaming of the
■
oil or fat when it is inserted. Slowly lower the filled basket
several times. This prevents overflowing of the fat.
Remove ice from deep frozen foodstuffs before deep frying.
