How to deal with the oil after having the deep-fry?

When I was growing up we used to save the oil after frying bacon and used to fry other foods like potatoes and such with. We kept the oil on the back of the stove until it went ransid. I think you could do the same or put it in the frig. Isn't there other things you need oil to fix? I would fix them around the same time so you don't waste the oil.

I save this oil and use it for regular cooking. But I make sure not to use it for deep frying again. I've heard it is not good to keep re-using oil. The oil used for general deep frying is okay. But when we make friend fish, the oil cannot be re-used except for frying fish and since we don't do this on a regular basis, it's a waste for us.

Hi my friend! How are you? Been a while that I have not seen you at the other site. Anyways, when it comes to the oil, we have this used oil container. We keep the used oil there for the next frying. The good thing about such container is there is a strainer on it. It strains the solid particles and leaves the oil.

Do you fry them in a pan with oil? We usually use a deep fryer that holds the oil. So when you are done you just close the lid and put it away till the next time. We reuse it another time or two before dumping it out and putting fresh oil in.

I would check it at the web as I have heard from doctors sources that oil should not be reused unless the heat never goes over some amount. That might be possible to do in a professional fryer, but not in a pot. So I have a very small pot to fry and take the pain of frying in small batches. Then I throw it away. I started doing this (and only using some kinds of oils, when my husband started with a virus C hepatitis. He lived almost 15 years more than what the initial doctor said he´d live and I think that some of these measures prolonged his life and the quality of his life.

Easy thing to do there just drain the oil. Put in the filtering device or something like that. Don't take a rush be patient, because the oil will drop slowly one by one and then you can started to take the food. Just be patient, or if you want to get the fast result take a clean tissue and start to wipe the oil from the food this is faster than the first one. Because tissue is absorbing the oil right away after you wipe it there. So it is easy no worry just do it and you get best result

Save it for the next time. At least when you cook other dishes with the same oil it will already have some kind of flavor on it because of the french fries. We usually save it for later when we would have fried chicken or fried pork in the evening.

We usually save the oil for use next time. If we used the oil to fry tasty food like fish or chicken, we use it again to maybe make fried rice or to stir fry vegetables so it can add to the taste of the dish. I think it would be such a waste to throw the oil every time, especially when it is used for deep frying.

I would perhaps save a small portion if you are planning on using it the same day or so for something else. Otherwise I'd get a jar or old coffee can to dispose of the old oil. We don't deep fry much anything here as it's not very healthy and heart problems running in both sides of the family for me or my kids. Though it can be a tasty treat in moderation.

hi youless I no longer can cook as I am i n a retirement c enter but seriously one should not keep oil very long that has been used to deep fry food as the tiny particles of old food will remain in that used oil and also after so long that deep fried used oil will become rancid and not safe to eat really rancid oil is not to be used again in cooking. this has been proven time and again. better to do less deep frying and use healthier ways of making food if ones concerned about wasting oil as super heated oil quickly deteriorates and becomes rancid which tastes awful and is awful for you too.I did no deep frying at all as its not that healthy and used very little oil and only olive or peanut oil

I don't deep fry anymore. I often stir fry in a little bit of healthy olive oil, which mostly gets eaten. I remember my mum used to store oil and re-use it when she made chips, she may have filtered it through paper. I also agree with the idea of using it in cars - my cousin has converted his car to run on cooking oil.

Good to see you around again. So far, i seldom want to save the oil which i had been use for frying. If i fry french fries, then i will save the oil for a few days. If i fry chicken or fish, i prefer to use the oil for cooking within that same day. After that, if there is still leftover of the oil, then i prefer to discard it away since the oil do smell different the next day when i use it again.

There are a few good uses for used oil. Whatever you use it for, you need to filter it first. Some people I know feed it to their pets by mixing it into their food, but I wouldn't recommend it! You can also read up on how to make candles with it. Some people add it to homemade fireworks, but it's illegal to do that here these days - especially in the fire ban season. One popular use is as a fuel in some cars. If your car runs on diesel, you can buy a conversion kit & run it from vegetable oil! Your exhaust will smell great & you might make all the drivers behind feel very hungry! It's also good for the environment & will eventually save you money on petrol, once you recover set-up costs, etc.

I recycle and reuse cooking oil too! I have different container or bottle though for that used oil. It really is a waste of money if you will throw it. You can use it in other food you cook like in your fries. You can still use it in frying your eggs..

If I am using a deep fryer, I usually use the oil a few times before throwing it out. It all depends on what I am cooking though. If the oil gets nasty or has a scent to it, I throw it out after one use.

we usually reuse oil two times. after deep-frying, we set aside the oil in one container and use it the next time we need to deep fry something. but after that, we throw it away.

I do use palm oil which is still healthy for the next use. But never do I re-use used oil more than two times. No matter how big the quantity I always throw away oil that I have already used twice. Health is wealth so why risk my family's health for trying to save the wrong way.

Cooking oil can be use to fry foods for a few time and when it color turn darker, I would normally throw it away, because a darker oil normal having a high content of carbon and that is what cases cancer. I did saw before a restaurant is using a different oil which specially made for frying. It can be use to fry for many time before it turn darker. So, if you fry a lot at home, it is better to use the frying oil instead of the normal cooking oil.

Depending on the type of food we just fried, we will reuse the oil. If we just fried french fries, then we can save it and reuse it in frying french fries again or frying chicken. We reuse the oil twice and then we throw it away.

Bulgarians make at least 200 cars with old oil and are extremely happy with this.For cars that are usually working with diesel fuel they use old oil from restaurant fryers. And there are thousands who are adding to their irradiated fuel oil, because they have no special device. You won't spend more than 1.5 EURO for 100 km. with your car. So i think this is really good thing to be done when the time to throw out your old oil comes.
