12. Various tips
Tip 1: How to avoid the excess formation
of acrylamide
Acrylamide is a chemical substance that is
formed whenever foods containing starch or
a certain protein compound at prepared at
temperatures over 100 °C.
• Wherever possible, you should avoid
excess browning, high temperatures for
baking or frying or fierce frying.
• You should not eat burnt food at all.
• When deep-frying, you should avoid
temperatures of over 170 °C.
• Make sure that the colour of the fried
items is “golden yellow” rather than
brown or dark. Browning may develop
very quickly. Use the viewing window to
observe the browning level of the fried
items.
Tip 2: How to fry frozen items perfectly
every time
Caution!
• Preferably, thaw out frozen food at room
temperature before frying. Remove as
much ice and water as possible before
placing the items in the fryer. Add the
food as slowly and carefully as possible
to the fryer because frozen food can
abruptly and quickly cause the hot oil or
fat to bubble.
• Frozen food (-16 to -18° C) greatly cools
down oil or fat, therefore it fries more
slowly and may absorb too much oil or
fat. You can prevent this as follows:
1. Never fry large quantities at the same
time.
2. Heat the oil for at least 15 minutes prior
to frying.
3. Set the temperature control device 9 to
the temperature stated on the pack of the
frozen food.
Tip 3: How to get rid of undesired
aftertastes
Some foodstuffs, such as fish, leach liquid
during frying. It collects in the frying oil or
fat and thus impairs the smell and taste of
the fried food.
To have neutral tasting oil or fat again,
proceed as follows:
1. Heat the oil or fat to 160 ° C.
2. Place two thin slices of bread or a few
sprigs of parsley in the stainless steel
fryer.
3. Wait until the oil or fat no longer
bubbles.
4. Remove the bread or the parsley with a
slotted spoon. The oil or fat has a neutral
taste again.
