To prolong the life of hotplates:-

l

Never use utensils with a skirt, e.g. a bucket.

l

Never use an asbestos mat.

l

Never leave the hotplates ON when not
covered with a saucepan.

l

Ensure that hob and saucepans are clean and dry
before the start of cooking to reduce cleaning.

l

Follow the cleaning instructions very closely to
keep the hob looking like new.

l

l

If spillage occurs with sugar solutions, e.g.
jams and syrups, it must be wiped from the
hob before it sets and becomes hard
otherwise damage to the hob will occur.

DEEP FAT FRYING

SPECIAL FRYING NOTE:

For safety purposes when deep fat frying, fill the pan
one-third full of oil, DO NOT cover the pan with a lid
and DO NOT leave the pan unattended. In the
unfortunate event of a fire, switch  the cooker OFF at
the electricity supply and cover the pan with a lid or
damp cloth to assist in smothering the flames.

DO NOT use water on the fire. Leave the pan to cool
for at least 30 minutes before moving it.

DO NOT leave the fat or oil in the frying pan on the
hob to store it in case the hob is inadvertently
switched ON.

1. Preparing the food

Seal the food by coating with flour, egg and
breadcrumbs or batter. Do not use a basket with
batter coated foods as they will stick.

2. Amount of oil

For safety purposes fill the pan only one-third full
of oil.

3. Testing the temperature of the oil

  

It is advisable to use a thermometer to test the
temperature of the oil. Alternatively, drop a small
cube of bread into the oil which should brown in
just under a minute if the oil is at the correct
temperature of 190°C/375°F.

4. Cooking the food

     Lower the food gently into the oil. Do not add too

much food at once or the temperature of the oil
will be reduced and may result in soggy, greasy
food. 

Turn the food if necessary; doughnuts float to the
surface so will not brown on the upperside if not turned.
Once cooked, drain the food on absorbent paper.

5. Double frying chips

   

Double frying will ensure good chips. First fry the chips
for a few minutes at 170°C/340°F to seal the outside.
Remove the chips from the oil. Increase the
temperature of the oil to 190°C/375°F to finish cooking
and brown the chips.

Chips may be kept for several hours after the first
frying before finishing off with the second frying.

PRESERVING

1. DO NOT use a pan that overlaps the perimeter of

the hob trim.

2. To allow for a full rolling boil, the pan should be

no more than one third full when all the
ingredients have been added. It is better to use
two pans rather than overfill one, or use half
quantities.

3. Use firm fruit or vegetables and wash well before

using.

4. Preserving sugar gives clear jam, however

granulated sugar is cheaper and gives equally
good flavour.

5. Crystallization may be caused if sugar is not

completely dissolved before bringing jam to the
boil. Over boiling will affect the flavour, setting
properties and colour of the jam.

6. To test jam for setting:

If a jam thermometer is available, boil jam to
104°C. Marmalade should be boiled to 106°C.

If a thermometer is not available, remove pan
from heat, place sample of jam on a cold dish
and cool quickly (i.e. in a freezer or frozen food
storage compartment of a refrigerator). When
cold, it will crinkle and hold the mark of a finger
run through it, if it is at setting point.

7. The scum should be removed as soon as

possible from the surface of the preserve after
setting point has been reached. Marmalade
