Bought a deep fryer a couple years back, once you're done with it, and let it cool down. You can turn a knob and it will filter itself and empty into a storage container. Once the oil has gone bad, I have a Home Depot bucket with a lid that I dump it into, once that is full I take it to the dump. Once the filtered bits are dumped in the compost, everything else goes in the dishwasher.

I fry in peanut oil, I have 2 air fryers but some things need to be deep fried.

I bought a deep fryer for $100ish. Makes it easy. Turn it on, come back 10minutes later, cook food for 4 minutes and then eat. It is a bitch to clean though but depends on how thorough you want to be.

I agree. Don't waste it, just drink it.

Fresh potatoes still need a layer of oil over them in order to be crisp in the airfryer.

Frying is the transference of heat through oil or fat. Air "frying" is just heating.

I'm cooking for several persons. Even with just 2 litres I have to do batches if I make fried tofu or Pakoras.

You should be filtering the oil and eventually it does get burnt out. But yeah it’s super easy to maintain a basic deep fryer.

He said beef tallow, not bull semen.

Just because RFK jr is a brain-damaged POS doesn't make vegetable oil automatically the better choice.

They are talking about the Minnesota Coronary Experiment, which suggests that using vegetable oil reduces cardiac disease, but leads to earlier death.

Rejecting science because it happens to be included in the garbage that an idiot believes would make you an idiot as well.

Edit: While re-reading what I wrote, I realize I'm also taking about the scientist who ran the study. He believed that his study would show that vegetable oils are healthier than animal fats. When the results proved the opposite was true, he hid the data.

I do use the overhead fan. And I move the whole fryer, oil and all, outside when I finish cooking, till I can clean it. I store the oil in the garage as well. Still stinks the house out everytime I use it.
