Helpful Hints
Frying
• Fry more batches of smaller amounts of food. Best results are obtained when the hot oil can
freely circulate all around the food.
• In general, pre-cooked foods require higher temperatures and less cooking time.
• Cut or sort food into uniform sizes. Cook same-size pieces together so they will be cooked
in the same amount of time.
• Be sure foods are free from ice crystals and excess moisture before frying. Water on the
surface of the food can cause the oil to spatter and foam.
• When using a breading, evenly coat the food to be fried. Fine, uniform crumbs stick better
than coarse, uneven ones. Shake off all extra breading to help keep oil clean.
• Space coated foods so they do not touch while cooking.
• For best results when frying doughs or foods dipped in a liquid batter, make sure the Basket
has been lowered into the hot oil before placing foods into the oil. This will prevent any
foods from sinking below the Heating Element, from where they would be hard to retrieve.
Oil
• Never over fill or under fill the fryer with oil. Minimum and maximum oil amounts are marked
on the inside of the Tank.
• Store clean or strained oil in fryer for only short amounts of time. Transfer oil to a covered
container once cooled. Store oil in the refrigerator.
• When frying fish or seafood, the oil may absorb a "fishy" taste. To eliminate transferring this
"fishy" taste to other foods, we suggest changing the oil before frying other foods.
Cooking Batter-Coated Foods
Batter-coated foods cook best when placed directly into the pre-heated oil rather than into the
Basket.
CAUTION: Always use metal tongs or a spoon to place and remove foods from hot oil.
1. Make sure the Basket has been lowered into the oil before preheating.
2. Pre-heat oil to desired cooking temperature. See "Instructions for Use" steps 1-9.
3. Coat desired food with batter.
4. Open Lid. Use metal tongs to CAREFULLY place batter-coated foods into hot oil inside
Tank. Allow enough room around each piece to cook the food properly.
CAUTION: Take care to avoid any spattering oil which may result from the food being
placed into the hot oil. Do not touch any interior parts of the Deep Fryer or the oil as they are
hot!
5. Close Lid.
6. Allow foods to cook. See "Cooking Chart" for more information. Look through Viewing
Window to see food cooking or to determine when food is cooked. DO NOT RAISE LID
DURING COOKING! Hot oil could spatter out of the Deep Fryer causing burns or other
injuries.
7. When food is cooked to desired doneness, grasp the Basket Handle and raise the Basket to
lift the cooked food from the hot oil. Carefully hang the Basket on the hook inside the Oil
Tank. Allow cooked foods to drain for 5-10 seconds before opening Lid.
WARNING: Use caution when opening Lid, steam escapes as soon as the Lid is opened.
8. Use metal tongs to remove cooked foods from the Basket. Place cooked foods onto
absorbent paper towels.
9. Follow steps 15-16 under “Instruction for Use.”
