Sidedish…for all occasions

Some food just have to be fried.  That is all there is too it.   I have tried putting my French Fries in the oven, but I get a soggy mess every time.  I tried different types of potatoes, cooking temps, cooking times, oiled first, unoiled…soggy every time.  So, yes I fry.   Just not every day.

This weekend is Labor Day, and the family will be here.  So it is hamburgers, hot dogs, some chicken or maybe I will do a brisket, the whole menu hasn’t been decided quite yet.   But one item that the whole family has agreed on is Onion Rings.

Deep Fat Frying

Fats for deep fat frying should be capable of being heated to a high temperature without smoking or burning.  Smoking impairs the flavor, the digestibility and the durability of the fat.  Once upon a time fat was used over and over for frying.  Over time the smoke became more so unless the cook cleaned the fat between frying.  We now know that this reuse of fat for frying can be dangerous to your health, so it is no longer recommended that you do it.
