Tips and tricks
Correct temperature
Suitable food for deep frying Nearly all foodstuffs are suitable for deep frying, e.g.:
Frozen food
Deep frying large amounts
Deep frying fat or oil
30
The correct temperature is very important for
achieving the desired deep frying result:
• temperature too low: The food is fried too slowly
and absorbs too much oil or fat.
• temperature too high: The food is browned too
quickly and remains raw on the inside.
poultry, fish, meat, vegetables, fruit, potatoes.
Foods with a high water content are less suitable.
Before lowering food into the frying fat, dry carefully,
shake off any surplus flour, and firmly press on the
breadcrumb layer.
Remove ice from deep frozen foodstuffs. Fill the
basket outside the deep fryer.
Moist or frozen food leads to violent foaming of the
fat when it is inserted. Slowly lower the filled basket
several times. This prevents overflowing of the fat.
If you wish to fry a large amount of food at once, we
recommend that you remove the basket after
1-2 minutes and place it in the hanger rack to enable
the oil or fat to reach its original temperature more
quickly. This makes the fried food more crispy.
After every use of the deep fryer, remove any
remainders of food from the oil or fat. Line a metal
sieve with kitchen paper and filter the lukewarm oil or
fat through the paper.
If the deep fried food no longer becomes the usual
crispy brown despite the correct temperature setting
or if the oil or fat turns slightly brown you have to
replace it.
