healthy nutrition
Nutrition experts recommend the use of vegetable oils and fats containing
unsaturated fatty acids (e .g . linoleic acid) . However, these oils and fats lose
their beneficial properties faster than other oils and must therefore be
exchanged more frequently .
Orient yourself on the following guidelines:
■
Exchange the oil or fat regularly . If you use the deep fat fryer mainly to
prepare chips, and strain the oil or fat after every use, it can be used 10
to 12 times .
■
However, do not use the oil or fat for longer than six months . Always follow
the instructions provided on the packaging .
■
As a general rule, oils and fats cannot be used so often if you mainly deep-fry
protein-rich foods, such as meat or fish .
■
Do not mix fresh oil with used oil .
■
Change the oil or fat if it foams on being heated, if it develops a strong taste
or odour, if it becomes dark and/or if it develops a syrupy consistency .
