First post.
I have joined this forum hoping for some proper guidance regarding deep frying.
I am a fisherman and cannot resist deep frying some of my fish in batter. The advice about deep frying seems to change far too frequently.
I used to fry in sunflower oil but read rapeseed oil is better, so now use rapeseed oil. I have occasionally used olive oil when I have run short of other oils. I have mixed it in with the rapeseed oil in the pan. Problem I have found is that it spits uncontrollably and is dangerous to the eyes!
A local DJ on the radio said this morning words to the effect "be in no doubt frying in vegetable oil will kill you". Apparently should be using butter or lard/beef dripping or olive oil.
My preference would be olive oil but I would need to find some olive oil that does not spit all over the kitchen.
Ideas please
Thanks
Mike
