For a time I operated in a convenience store as a clerk and cook and I utilized a deep fryer rather a bit for cooking battered chicken and French fried potatoes.
Before the chicken is ready for the cooking part it must be prepared and time to thaw out. It is again rinsed and kept cold, until needed for cooking.
When needed for preparing the chicken is breaded in an unique spicy flour mix, dipped in spice water, and breaded with mix once again. Each piece is than carefully placed in the boiling oil in the deep fryer; starting with the big, meaty pieces, and ending up with the thin bony pieces. This offers the thick meaty pieces more time to prepare. They get the most popular oil in the pot to start the cooking procedure. The deep fryer is on a timer and part way through the cooking process the timer triggers an alarm which informs you that it's time to stir the chicken, so it gets all sides prepared equally, even the sides touching when first put in the fryer. After stirring the chicken it cooks until completion of cooking cycle alarm goes off. Then the pot elevator will automatically raise the cooking basket from the hot oil, permitting the chicken to drip off the excess oil.
They then can be gently lowered in hands complete, into the boiling oil. After 4 cooks the oil in the fryer requires to be filtered to clean it for future cooking cycles. Another alarm shows when oil filtering needs 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 component, to remove anything sticking to their surface areas. When the oil has actually become lighter in color it is pumped back up to the oil tank, after the valve check here 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 filling the food into the cooking basket. Even using rubber gloves won't stop the oil from burning you, ought to it splash on your hands as the food drops into the hot oil.
Happy cooking. Cook, but do not be prepared.
