Most of us do not fry foods very often. The last food I fried was crab
rangoon, and it was for a party, so I had to cook lots of it. Like you
mentioned, you have to maintain a high temperature to get light, crispy
food, in stead of a greasy mess. I use a cast iron pot, because cast
iron maintains a high temperature. I have a deep fryer in a box, that
someone gave me as a gift, but I have not tried it out. Maybe I should
try it. Donuts sound good.


I am looking at this blender on Woot, and it is $149.99. I did not know
blenders were this expensive.
