3-8. CARE OF SHORTENING
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW TO
AVOID SHORTENING OVERFLOWING THE
FRYPOT, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS
BURNS, PERSONAL INJURY, FIRE, AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
1. Maintain the shortening at the proper cooking level.
Add fresh shortening as needed.
2. To protect and get the maximum life out of the
shortening, lower the temperature to 275° F (135° C) or
lower when the fryer is not in immediate use.
Deteriorated shortening smokes badly, even at lower
temperatures.
3. Taste the cold shortening daily for signs of bad flavor.
Discard any shortening which has a bad flavor or shows
signs of excessive foaming or boiling. Keep the frypot
clean.
WITH PROLONGED USE, THE FLASHPOINT
OF SHORTENING IS REDUCED. DISCARD
SHORTENING IF IT SHOWS SIGNS OF
EXCESSIVE SMOKING OR FOAMING.
SERIOUS BURNS, PERSONAL INJURY, FIRE,
AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE COULD
RESULT.
