For a time I worked in a corner store as a clerk and cook and I used a deep fryer a fair bit for cooking battered chicken and French fried potatoes.
Prior to the chicken is all set for the cooking part it must be prepared and time to thaw out. It is again rinsed and kept cold, until required for cooking.
Each piece is than thoroughly positioned in the boiling oil in the deep fryer; beginning with the big, meaty pieces, and finishing with the thin bony pieces. They get the hottest oil in the pot to start off the cooking process. The pot elevator will instantly lift the cooking basket out of the hot oil, allowing the chicken to drip off the excess oil.
The deep fryer also cooks French fried potatoes. After cutting the potatoes into the lengthened cube shape in a cutter, the french fries are damaged, dipped and damaged again. They then can be carefully decreased in hands full, into the boiling oil. The cooking is again managed by a timer, which sounds when the cooking cycle has actually completed. After 4 cooks the egg fryer machine oil in the fryer needs to be filtered to clean it for future cooking cycles. Another alarm shows when oil filtering requirements to occur.
The heat on the oil is turned off, so the oil can cool down enough to work with. When the oil has actually drained pipes the empty oil tank is brushed, consisting of the heating coil aspect, to get rid of anything sticking to their surfaces. When the oil has ended up being lighter in color it is pumped back up to the oil reservoir, after the valve at the bottom of the pot has been closed.
Yes the fryer does most of the cooking for you however enjoy out for the hot oil when packing the food into the cooking basket. Even wearing rubber gloves won't stop the oil from burning you, should it sprinkle on your hands as the food drops into the hot oil.
Happy cooking. Cook, however don't be prepared.
The pot elevator will automatically raise the cooking basket out of the hot oil, allowing the chicken to leak off the excess oil.
