How to remove undesirable after-tastes

Some foodstuffs, especially fish, release fluids when being fried. These fluids collect in the oil or fat and can influence the smell and taste of fried foods that are later cooked in the same oil or fat.

Proceed as follows to again obtain a neutral tasting oil or fat:

Heat the fat or oil to 160°C and and place two thin slices of bread or a couple of small sprigs of parsley into the frying basket 2.

Attention!

Absolutely close the appliance lid w before lowering the frying basket with the parsley or the bread into hot oil or fat. Splattering fats can lead to serious burns.

Wait until the oil or fat is no longer bubbling and remove the bread or parsley with a skimmer. The oil or fat now has a neutral taste once again.

Healthy Nutrition

Nutritional experts recommend the use of vegetable oils and fats containing unsaturated fatty acids (e.g. Linol acid). However, these oils and fats lose their positive characteristics faster than other oils and must therefore be exchanged more frequently. Orientate yourself on the following guidelines:

Exchange the oil or fat regularly. If you use the deep fryer mainly to prepare chips and strain the oil or fat after every use, it can be used 10 to 12 times.

However, do not use an oil or fat for longer than six months. Always follow the instruction given on the packaging.

As a general rule, oils and fats can be used for a lesser time if you mainly fry foods with lots of proteins, such as meat or fish.

Do not mix fresh oil with old oil.

Change the oil or fat if it foams on being heated, it develops a strong taste or odour, it becomes dark and/or it develops a syrupy consistency.

Overheat Protection

In a case of overheating, the heat protection function switches the appliance off. The control lamp 6 then glows only on the left side.

This can happen if there is no, or not sufficient, oil or fat in the deep fryer or when solid cooking fats are being molten in the appliance.

With solid cooking fats the heating element cannot disburse the heat created fast enough.

If the heat protection function has switched the ap- pliance off, please proceed as follows:

Allow the oil or fat to cool down.

Carefully press the reset button e on the rear side of the operating element with a small pointed object. The appliance can now be used again.
