Deep-Frozen Foods; How To Prevent Unwanted After-Taste - SilverCrest SEF3 2000 A1 Mode D'emploi

Deep-frozen foods

Deep-frozen foodstuff s (-16 °C to -18 °C) cool the oil or fat to a considerable
extent, because of this they do not cook fast enough and may also soak up too
much oil or fat. To avoid this, proceed as follows:
■ Do not attempt to deep-fry large amounts all at once. Do not fi ll the frying
basket 3 (or the small frying baskets w) to more than the Max. fi ll level
marked on the inside of the frying basket.
■ Heat the oil for at least 15 minutes before adding the frozen foods.
Adjust the temperature control 7 to the temperature specifi ed in these
■
operating instructions or on the packaging of the food to be deep-fried.
■ Preferably, allow the deep-frozen food to thaw at room temperature prior to
deep-frying. Remove as much ice and water as possible before adding the
food into the deep fat fryer.
■ Always add foods as slowly and carefully as possible into the deep fat
fryer, as deep-frozen foods can cause the oil or fat to bubble violently and
abruptly.

How to prevent unwanted after-taste

Some foodstuff s, especially fi sh, release fl uids when being deep-fried. These fl uids
collect in the oil or fat and can impair the smell and taste of foods that are later
deep-fried in the same oil or fat.
Proceed as follows to obtain neutral-tasting oil or fat:
■ Heat the fat or oil to 150 °C and place two thin slices of bread or a couple
of small sprigs of parsley in the frying basket 3.
Lower the frying basket 3 (or the small frying baskets w into the fat and
■
close the lid.
■ Wait until the oil or fat is no longer bubbling and remove the bread or parsley
with a skimmer. The oil or fat now has a neutral taste once again.
