point.
Never leave a chip pan unattended. Always
heat fat slowly, and watch as it heats. Deep
fry pans should be only one third full of

spill over when food is added. If you use a
combination of oils or fats in frying, stir them
together before heating, or as the fats melt.
Foods for frying should be as dry as possible.
Frost on frozen foods or moisture on fresh
foods can cause hot fat to bubble up and over
the sides of the pan. Carefully watch for spills
or overheating of foods when frying at high or
medium high temperatures. Never try to move
a pan of hot fat, especially a deep fat fryer. Wait
until the fat is cool.
