Fryers, Deep Fat Fryers

Posted on n/a

Fryers are popular for home use. The most common item in a deep fat fryer is the basket where food is put to fry. Sunflower oil is one type of oil used by the fryer to quickly cook the food. Most fryers operate in the temperature range of 140-200 °C. Of course the fryers for home use are not as fancy as the commercial fryers, which usually have timers and alarms for automatic basket lifting and lowering. Though some home fryers are now incorporating these features. One of the main things to look for in a deep fat fryer is the capacity of oil it can hold. Because this will dictate how much food you can cook at any one time. Most fryers will tell you the oil and food capacity. Other useful features are a cool touch wall so the body of the fryer will be safe to touch when in use. Another is a clear window on the top of the fryer so you dont have to open the lid to see how the food is cooking. You also have to take into account that deep fat fryers can be a safety risk. When oil is hot it can easily burn your skin, or if left unattended can start a fire in your hoem. Therefore it's a good idea to buy a deep fat fryer with lids and other safety mechanisms to reduce these risks. Remember not to fill your fryer with too much oil. You should never leave your fryer unattended.
