Pre-Heating
;
Light the main burners and manually cycle the burners ‘On’ / ‘Off’ until the shortening
has liquefied. Ideally the main burners should be cycled ‘On’ for 5 seconds and ‘Off’ for
10 seconds. Following this procedure should allow shortening to liquefy gradually
without scorching.
ii.
Once the shortening has liquefied, it can be brought up to fryer operating temperature.
NOTE: Running burners continuously will cause shortening in contact with the tank to overheat,
resulting in premature oil breakdown. Never allow the shortening to smoke while melting
as this indicates that the temperature is too high. If the shortening starts smoking,
increase the 'Off' intervals of the main burners.
