HELPFUL HINTS ABOUT YOUR FRYER
1. | Preheat oil before first frying. Also, allow the oil to return to proper |
| temperature before cooking another batch of food. |
2. | Do not overfill the basket. Be sure the foods to be cooked are fully covered |
| by the oil. |
3. | Season fried foods when they are still hot and fresh from the fryer. |
4. | Never overfill the fryer. There must be room for the hot oil to rise when |
| food has been added. |
