Use a deep fat thermometer whenever possible to
prevent overheating fat beyond the smok ing point.
Never leave a chip pan unattended. Always heat fat
slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep fry pans should
be only one third full of fat. Filling the pan too full
of fat can cause spill over when food is added. If
you use a combination of oils or fats in frying, stir
them together before heating, or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible. Frost
on frozen foods or moisture on fresh foods can cause
hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
Carefully watch for spills or overheating of foods
when frying at high or medium high temperatures.
Never try to move a pan of hot fat, especially a deep
fat fryer. Wait until the fat is cool.
Do not use the top of the fl ue (the slot along the
back of the cooker) for warming plates, dishes,
drying tea towels or softening butter.
When using an electrical appliance near the hotplate,
be sure that the cord of the appliance does not come
into contact with the hotplate.

earthenware or other glazed containers are
