It’s easy to make some of the most delicious foods you’ve ever tasted with your
Chard Deep Fryer. The large capacity gives you flexibility to cook for a hungry

Deep Frying:
It’s hard to find anything more moist and delicious than perfectly prepared fried
foods. From meats to seafood to vegetables and even desserts, deep frying is a
crowd pleasing way to enjoy a meal for a large gathering.
Chard continues to express the need for caution and safety. With that in mind, here
are some helpful hints.
Temperature control is very important when frying correctly. Pay careful attention
to make sure the items are cooking thoroughly. Different foods have different cook
times. The goal is a golden brown exterior and moist, thoroughly cooked interior.
Ideal temperature for:
French Fries - 350°F (177°C)
Fish - 325-350°F (163-177°C)
Doughnuts, etc. - 325°F (163°C)
How can I tell if my oil shouldn’t be reused?
• If it smokes at a low temperature
• If it smells and/or tastes bad
• If it has darkened appreciably
• If it has thickened up or forms a froth
Other Hints:
• Don’t fry too much at a time: it causes the temperature to sink and the product to
become limp or dry.
• If you have fried fish in the oil, you can expect other items fried in the same oil to
acquire a fishy taste. Ideally you should use different oils for different products.
• Never salt food, or add liquid flavorings over the oil
• Clean the fryer after every use
• Filter the oil at the end of the day and place in the refrigerator.
