You didn't give much information to go on. How many people will you be
frying for? Get a fryer that will meet your needs or just a big bigger in
case company shows up.
If you want to fry more than one type of food simultaneously, get one with
two baskets for separation of foods. If you're totally blind, I suggest one
that stays cool to the touch that has a locking lid and a way to raise and
lower the baskets from outside the closed fryer. They cost more, and are
usually the bigger fryers, but they are also safer. Some have timers and
will automatically raise and lower the baskets, but that isn't necessary, at
least for me. I time my frying with a timer, and don't need automatic
raising of baskets after the time expires.

Subject: [CnD] deep frying, and deep fryers
Can anyone tell me what they use to do deep frying? I want to get one, but
I
don't know what to get. We don't do a lot of it, but one would be nice.
Any tips would be helpful.

I am the same way. While I could broil something if I wanted to, I really
prefer some kind of cooking method where I have sides so am seldom likely
to
use it as a cooking technique. But, I could if I want to and that's what's
important. We all should cook as we are comfortable and feel safest.

Thank you, Greg, but no, you didn't put me in danger, for I have not
tried using a broiler again after that incident, and I won't. That
was back in the 1970's that happened. Since then, I've left broiling
alone.
Although I didn't have the foil wrapped around the pan, I did have it
so that the edges were pointed upward, much like a tray, so the grease
had nowhere to go. I could see immediately where my mistake was, I
have no desire to try broiling again.
Thanks, though!
Mary, I'm glad you have decided to go on with your use of foil.
You're right about your friend. Perhaps he's been to one too many
houses where someone has touched the foil accidentally to the heating
element, and he doesn't realize that *that in particular is dangerous.
Foil can definitely burn if you brush it against the heating element.
Perhaps you can tell him foil is like a match or a lighter: It's safe
as long as it's used correctly.
Someone said she has a problem with parchment paper burning at
temperatures above 350; I've been lucky. I've never had that problem.

to
put foil on a baking sheet and put your tater tots on that. Do put a
cookie
sheet under them so it's easy to pick up and not drop the food.

Just used foil to bake tater tots and no fire. He just needs to calm
down,
plus he doesn't cook much and used to work for the fire department for
years.

Parchment paper is often used as a liner to prevent sticking. That's
the
liner that can catch fire. I know because my Pilsbury biscuits turned
into
biscuits brulee. I don't think foil would burn. It does tear when you
try
to get your food off the cookie sheet.

Hi,
I'm curious, have any of you had problems when using a baking pan with
foil to bake things in the conventional oven? I have never had any
problems with it, though I have a friend who says that nobody should
bake
things in the oven using foil because it can be a fire hazard. I don't
know what to believe, because I've never had issues. Please share your
feedback.
Mary
