General Use of the Fryer, Shut-Down | Frymaster Combinations, 824E

3.2General Use of the Fryer

1.For consistent product quality and long-term savings, use a high-quality cooking oil or shortening.

2.When satisfied that the cooking oil/shortening is at the proper cooking temperature, carefully lower a basket of product into the frypot. At the end of the recommended cooking time for the product, lift the basket from the frypot and allow excess oil/shortening to drain back into the frypot before transferring the product to a holding station or the serving line.

CAUTION

In multi-fryer batteries, do not bang baskets or other utensils on the frypot joiner strip. The strip is present to seal the joint between the frypots. Banging baskets on the strip to will distort the strip, adversely affecting its fit. It is designed for a tight fit and should only be removed for cleaning.

3.Although 350°F (177°C) is the recommended temperature for most cases, frying should be done at the lowest temperature that will produce a high-quality end product. Light loads may generally be cooked at a lower temperature than large loads.

4.When the fryer is not in use, the temperature should be reduced to prolong the life of the oil or shortening. It is good practice to experiment to determine the optimum temperature and load conditions for the various foods to be fried.

5.The cooking oil or shortening should be filtered at least once a day. Depending upon the actual quantity of product being cooked, more frequent filtering may be required. Refer to Chapter 4 for specific filtering procedures.

6.If the fryer will be idle for periods longer than 30 minutes, it is recommended that the elements be turned off.

3.3Shut-Down

1.When shutting down at the end of the day, filter the oil or shortening in all fryers and drain the filter lines. Press the POWER switch to the OFF position and allow the fryer to cool. Clean exposed surfaces of the fryer and cover the frypots.

2.When shutting down for longer than overnight, filter the cooking oil or shortening and then drain it into suitable storage containers or discard it. Press the POWER switch to the OFF position and allow the fryer to cool. Clean the fryer inside and out in accordance with the procedures in Section 3.4.
