How To Prevent Unwanted After-Taste; Healthy Nutrition - Silvercrest SEF3 2000 C4 Bedienungsanleitung

■ Do not attempt to deep-fry large amounts all at once. Do not fill the frying
basket 3 (or the small frying baskets w) to more than the Max. fill level
marked on the inside of the frying basket.
■ Heat the oil for at least 15 minutes before adding the frozen foods.
Adjust the temperature control 7 to the temperature specified in these
■
operating instructions or on the packaging of the food to be deep-fried.
■ Preferably, allow the deep-frozen food to thaw at room temperature prior to
deep-frying. Remove as much ice and water as possible before adding the
food into the deep fat fryer.
■ Always add foods as slowly and carefully as possible into the deep fat
fryer, as deep-frozen foods can cause the oil or fat to bubble violently and
abruptly.

How to prevent unwanted after-taste

Some foodstuffs, especially fish, release fluids when being deep-fried. These fluids
collect in the oil or fat and can impair the smell and taste of foods that are later
deep-fried in the same oil or fat.
Proceed as follows to obtain neutral-tasting oil or fat:
■ Heat the fat or oil to 150 °C and place two thin slices of bread or a couple
of small sprigs of parsley in the frying basket 3 (or the small frying baskets w).
Lower the frying basket 3 (or the small frying baskets w) into the fat and
■
close the lid.
■ 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

Nutrition experts recommend the use of vegetable oils and fats containing
unsaturated fatty acids (e.g. linoleic acid). However, these oils and fats lose
their beneficial properties faster than other oils and must therefore be
exchanged more frequently.
Orient yourself on the following guidelines:
■ Exchange the oil or fat regularly. If you use the deep fat 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 the oil or fat for longer than six months. Always follow
the instructions provided on the packaging.
■ As a general rule, oils and fats cannot be used so often if you mainly deep-fry
protein-rich foods, such as meat or fish.
■ Do not mix fresh oil with used oil.
■ Change the oil or fat if it foams on being heated, if it develops a strong taste
or odour, if it becomes dark and/or if it develops a syrupy consistency.
