I found this informative. Different oils should work best for different foods, e.g. Vegetables vs. meat vs. sea food. Why Not? makes sense to me. Perhaps Chef might expand on this. I live on the east coast where we do a lot deep frying from fish to crab cakes to squid, etc. Thanks. now I'll need more information.
Ive been digging around (about 5 sec) and found that the smoke point of cottonseed oil is not that high at all (216°C 420°F) compare it to cheap sunflower oil at (227°C 441°F) or even clarified butter (250°C 482°F) with avocado oil at the highest (270°C 520°F). And since most deep fryers don't go above 190°C it shouldn't be a problem right? I would love to try and taste the difference but the price of cottonseed oil is ludicrous. and a 40% longer lifespan does not equivalate to a better price range if the price is 250% higher. :) well at least where I live so keep that in mind.
Great video Chef, one point I would have to challenge you on. The temp at which to fry at. The creation of acrylamides ( a toxic by product from potassium based products) is greatly increased when cooking at 370 and above.
What do you do with the ryer when slow times at the restaurant? do you turn it off and on as needed? do you keep it on the whole day, if so what's the minimum temperature? Any information regarding this matter?
Hello, Thank you for the video. I have a question, how could one minimize adding water to the oil if we want to focus on selling fresh-cut fries and these are supposed to be in the water for them to release the excess starches? I thank you for your time.
I agree with most of your points except the kind of oil. I like peanut oil better because of the superior flavor. It lasts longer because you can fry at a higher temperature with out breaking the oil down. I fry at 375 because even though with peanut oil you can fry at higher temps, I don't because the oil lasts longer.
Very informative video👍👍 i did not know salt and water damages your oil. I throw frozen seasoned food in my deep fryer all the time😮😟 i guess i better stop
So you say water and oil don't mix which is correct so dropping frozen french fries into the oil is a bad idea would that be correct I'm assuming that the water frozen water is bad for the oil since you say don't mix the water with the oil can anyone clarify that because I noticed he's not answering any comments
My friend tried that once in his resteraunt. Every little fryer spit hit the floor and turned back to grease fat. Kitchen staff were slipping and sliding. He found oil was better in that regard. He never used lard again, but he did admit that it performed well as a cooking agent. I use it when cooking outdoors.
Gravity filters my oil. I put the warm (not hot) oil in a clear plastic orange juice jug then let it settle til all the crud is at the bottom. After 4 or 5 days, I just pour off the clear oil. It's like making wine...just let it settle.
For real. Just sounds what bad cooking, my mom always insists that she has fresh fries made with clean oil even though she's a country soul food chef that knows old oil taste better
For home frying in a Fry Daddy, can I get away with filtering through a fine mesh strainer, or should I use a paper coffee filter? Gotta hunt down some cottonseed oil!
For flaunting the Cia crap, you really don't look like a man who has been in a kitchen. No one, absolutely no one drags something that far out of the fryer. You usually bring your container toward the fryer to avoid spilling oil droplets everywhere, and then you season. I stand corrected. After seeing the video again, there are so many droplets everywhere.
DeejayHonesT Hello, can you please help me by explaining what you mean by infusing them before frying??? I would really appreciate a detail explanation thanks
so this was an ad for cottonseed oil?
Well... it's by a channel called "CottonseedOilTour" and at the end you see the "National Cottonseed Products Association" logo... sooo.... yes?
The CIA's trying to get us to use cottonseed oil.

He was trained at the Cia, not promoting for the CIA itself. He doesn’t have the CIA jacket.
I had a summer job as a short order cook and and yes cotton seed oil is the best. I saw it for myself, it performs well.

How do you filter your oil?
Can you usec extra virgin olive oil for frying, and can you store the oil?
Thanks
But how many times to reuse the oil?
Until it smokes, smells, grows foam or is too dark (unless you need it dark like for some Asian cooking)
Good Video 🙏

Thank you sir.
This glows
what fryer is that?
Thanks Philip! Awesome video!

Frank Gerlach, how long in general can you reuse oil? Does it go by how many times you used it or other methods? Thanks
What about avocado oil? It has a much higher smoke point, is healthier for you and it probably makes the fries taste super yummy.
How do we filter our used oil?
Thanks
Is crisp and dry a good cooking oil for my deep fryer?
Very informative video👍👍 i did not know salt and water damages your oil. I throw frozen seasoned food in my deep fryer all the time😮😟 i guess i better stop
Now I know why oil goes dull so quick thanks I'm no longer going to put salt before frying
I'm MPLS also. Didn't know about Cottonseed Oil. Where can I get it in MPLS? I do a lot of cooking both fish and fried chicken. Thanks for the tips.
"Trained at the CIA" Lol.
😍Yes very hard at Culinary Institute of America
What's wrong with french fries tasting like chicken? Doesn't sound bad, actually.
I like my chicken tasting like french fries. Better!!!
@@crispyroti Nothing. It's french fries tasting like fish that is the problem. If you hate fish.
@@watermelonlalala lol people who eat fish usually dislike fish. "It Tastes fishy" - guess what, you don't like fish 😂😂
I would use my oil three times. The first time for doughnuts, the second time for french fries and the third time for meat.
I'd rather my fries taste like... fried potato. Good fries have a nice potato flavor and nothing else.

How to stop foaming of oil during deep frying?
Wonder if that's the soap formation due to salt?!!

Way to bury the lead in that intro haha
Over here, we have undercover cops "working" as meatball seller... So it's not strange if you guys have CIA agents "working" as chef.
at first I thought he was Chandler
The first rule of the CIA is that you never talk about the CIA. You’ve got to be more discreet about. I recommend that you deny everything.
375🤔🙈🙈🙈
Lol my oil definitely looks like that dark variety
We are a Chinese factory that produces fried baskets, you can contact me if you need it
who would salt fries over the frying pan anyways?
cia
I always use BMW-DTF 1 oil in my fryer
My fries are crispy and taste awesome every time
😂
It's a video. Don't talk about filtering oil. Show it.
Cotton seed is not considered a food crop and sprayed with dangerous pesticides 😢
CIA!? Wtf hahahaha
I guess all the CIA training didnt go so well life sucks 😞 😔
U single, Jeff?
Save oil not life’s that’s bad
was it important to know he was CIA for the purpose of the video?
Cottonseed oil is not a food.
I wouldn't eat food from a CIA trained chef, he would probably put some poison in my food or something.
LOL, he meant Culinary Institute of America (CIA)
*kimckawa* Oh ok.
latengocomoburro z. CIA is Culinary Institute of America
well he makes fries without infusing them before frying? ... a shame what´s called chef today....
DeejayHonesT Hello, can you please help me by explaining what you mean by infusing them before frying??? I would really appreciate a detail explanation thanks
Bik3rboy666 let them rest in salty water .... not more not less ^^
DeejayHonesT 15 minutes before frying or more time???
Bik3rboy666 3 hours at least. sous vide pros infuse it in a few minutes with ultrasonic sound ^^
Bik3rboy666 well shouldnt say sous vide pros... more the peeps of modernist cuisine
