Draining & Recycling Oil; Deep Frying Chart - Bella 14489 Manual De Instrucciones

• Always use the frying basket to lift food out of the oil; hook the frying basket to the rim and allow
oil to drain. Then remove fried food from the frying basket.
• Place fried foods on brown grocery bags to drain oil and keep fried foods crispy.
Frying Oil
• Never over-fill or under-fill the fryer with oil. Both the MIN and MAX oil levels are marked on
the inside of the tank.
WARNING: Under- or over-filling the oil tank may damage the appliance and could result in serious
personal injury.
• Always use oil with low water content like sunflower oil, grapeseed oil, vegetable oil or corn oil.
Never use hard fats, olive oil or oil with a high water content.
WARNING! Never, under any circumstances, add water or any other liquid to the oil.
• Never mix different oils together to fry foods.
• Never use butter or margarine to fry foods.
• When frying fish or seafood, the oil may absorb a "fishy" taste or odor. To eliminate transferring
this "fishy" taste or odor to other foods, we suggest changing the oil before frying other foods.
Draining & Recycling Oil
WARNING! Be careful around hot parts and hot spitting oil. Remember that the oil is actually hotter
than boiling water! Never put hands in the oil. Always keep hands and face away from rising steam
or spitting oil.
• Oil should be drained and recycled regularly.
• DO NOT pour oil from the appliance without first removing frying basket from the appliance body.
NOTE: DO NOT pour used oil down any household drain. Discard used oil into a container with a lid
and dispose in garbage.
• Filter the cooled oil through a fine sieve into a wide-neck, airtight, covered container.
Use a funnel to avoid oil spillage.
NOTE: Neatly arranged paper towels or piece of clean cotton material can be placed in
the frying basket to filter used oil.
• As oil will absorb food flavors and odors, it's a good idea to label the container with the type
of food that was cooked in the oil. For example: sweet desserts, vegetables, chicken, fish, etc.

WARNING! ALWAYS USE A MEAT THERMOMETER TO ENSURE THAT MEAT AND FISH ARE COOKED
THOROUGHLY BEFORE EATING. The following chart is intended as a guide only. The quantity of food
fried at one time may alter the total cooking time necessary. Remember, frying smaller batches will result
in shorter cooking times and higher food quality. Adjust frying temperature and times as necessary to
