(Guest Post) I reuse my oil all the time. i use coffee filters to stain the food particales out. it preservese the oil longer. Keep in frig or cold room. Use old coffee pot with strainer and you won't have to buy near equipment and the coffee pot fits in the frig with a spout to boot.

This is per Adele Davis' book Let's Cook it Right. (from a SF Bay Area native) Posted on 06/18/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Reusing Frying Oil By (Guest Post) Basic rule of thumb. Don't reuse oil if meat was cooked in it but anything else can be put in a jar and put in the fridge for late use. I reuse the oil from scone making all the time.

Don't know if it really works or is an old wives tale type of thing. The first link below says to fry parsley. There have been articles about how reheating oil breaks down the oil into something unsavory and unhealthful. The 2nd and 3rd links for more on that. http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook:Deep_Fat_Frying http://www.drweil.com/drw/u/id/QAA358078 http://www.discusscooking.com/forums/f17/deep-fry-oil-reuse-18227.html http://preventdisease.com/news/articles/reusing_cooking_oil_ups_bp.shtml Posted on 06/17/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Reusing Frying Oil By Aysha (12) Contact As long as you strain the bit food bits from the oil, everything should be fine and you can certainly re-use it. The only problem with re-using oil is the taste factor. The oil picks up the flavor of whatever you fry in it. Sometimes it can make food taste better, and sometimes make it taste worse. If you fried a bunch of fish and garlic in the oil, then later used the oil to fry some chocolate truffles,....your chocolate truffles will taste like fish and garlic too.

I grew up in the 'Bay Area'--Menlo Park, Los Altos, etc. ANYway, I don't see why you couldn't save & reuse Canola oil, 'specially for the same purpose. We usta reuse oils alla time, & for many foods [I don't 'deep'-fry much anymore]. Strain or scoop out any food particles, store in closed container in cool place [even the fridge]. Oh, don't worry if it gets cloudy in the fridge--just bring it back to room temp an' it'll be fine. Posted on 06/17/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
