Hot shortening must always be at the level indicator line
(Figure 3-5). Failure to follow these instructions could result in
a fire and/or damage to the fryer.
When using solid shortening, it is recommended to melt
the shortening on an outside heating source before placing it in
the frypots. The frypot surface on gas fryers must be com-
pletely submerged when power is turned on. Fire or damage to
the frypot could result.
1. Henny Penny recommends using a high quality frying peanut oil in
the pressure fryer. Some low grade peanut oils have a high mois-
ture content which causes foaming and boiling over.
To avoid severe burns when pouring hot shortening into
frypot, wear gloves and take care to avoid splashing.
2. The gas model requires 43 lbs (19.5 kgs) of peanut oil. The
frypot has a level indicator line inscribed on the rear wall of the
frypot which shows when the heated peanut oil is at the proper
level. Figure 3-5.
3. Cold peanut oil should be filled to 1/4 to 1/2 inch below the indica-
tor line. The peanut oil expands when heated and should be even
with the indicator line when the peanut oil is at cooking temperature.
