COOKING TECHNIQUES & TIPS
PAge heAder.....
• If using this method, remember to under
cook meat slightly so that reheating will
not spoil and toughen the finished dish.
• Serve stir fried foods immediately
to retain their crisp texture.
SHALLOW FRyING
Recommended temperature probe setting:
8–10.
Used to crispen and cook foods in small
amount of oil. The foods may have
already been cooked.
• Use approximately 2 cups of oil, or
sufficient oil so that half the food is
submerged.
• Preheat the oil before adding food.
When using oil, never cover with the lid
during the heating or cooking as this
will cause condensation to drip into the
oil and result in splattering.
• Do not move the skillet during heating
or cooking.
• Wipe excess moisture from foods to
avoid splattering.
• Cook food in batches to ensure
crispness.
• Drain cooked foods on kitchen paper
to absorb excess oil.
• Never leave your skillet unattended
while shallow frying.
• Allow oil to cool completely before
removing from the skillet. Vegetable,
canola or rice bran oil is recommended
for shallow frying.
