Tips and tricks
Tips for using oil or fat to fry food
■
When frying food, use only pure plant oils or fats that
are suitable for high-temperature frying, such as
groundnut oil, palm oil and coconut oil. Oils that are
not suitable include virgin olive oil, soybean oil and
wheatgerm oil. Avoid using blends of fat.Follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
■
Each time you use the fryer, use a skimming ladle
afterwards to remove any large food remnants from
the frying oil or fat. Alternatively, you can open the oil
drain valve to drain off the food remnants. Wait until
the frying oil or fat has cooled down to 40 °C or
less.
