InFormAtIon reGArdInG cooKInG oIl
In our instructions we suggest peanut oil for deep frying. While this is an excellent choice, any good liquid
vegetable oil may be substituted.
suGGestIons For KeePInG used cooKInG oIl:
After initial use, let the oil cool. While slightly warm, filter out particles before storing in original container or
similar sturdy plastic or glass container.This can be accomplished by using filter paper (coffee filters) or a clean
cloth (dishtowel). Never pour hot oil into a container. For best results store oil in a cool place. It can be reused
within 30 days. Discard after second use or when the flavor of reheated oil becomes objectionable to taste.
Helpful Hint: Try frying a batch of french fried potatoes after frying your turkey, chicken or fish. This aids in
improving the flavor of the oil for the next use.
