Use and Care Manual

BASIC FRYING INSTRUCTIONS
Set the desired temperature and allow shortening to heat up to that temperature.
Fry items that are of similar size to ensure equal doneness.
Drain or wipe dry raw or wet foods to minimize splatter when lowering into hot oil.
Add fresh shortening as needed top maintain the shortening level between the recommended
(embossed) minimum and maximum fill level (volume) lines.
FRY BASKET GUIDELINES
Don’t overfill baskets. (See table for recommended basket capacities below) Carefully lower each
basket into the hot oil to minimize turbulence and splatter to meet the customer demand.
When frying doughnuts and fritters, turn product only once during frying.
When cooking French fries or onion rings, shake the basket several times.
Batter-covered foods should be dropped carefully, one by one, into shortening or basket (If a basket
is
used, first dip the basket into the oil to reduce batter-build up on basket surfaces.)
When frying is completed, remove basket or product. Hang basket on the rear basket hanging plate
allowing he excess oil to flow back into the fry vat (kettle/pot/tank).
