deep fryer recomendation
 

what are your recommendations on home use deep fryers? I am spoiled by
having used commercial deep fryers, where the oil temp maintains well when
a good quantity of food is tossed in.

thanks.

Most any of the rectangular ones that fully disassemble. They are the
easiest to clean up, and with the hard corners, easier to pour oil out
of into a funnel into a bottle.

For quality of the resulting product: watts, watts. watts. You should be
able to find a fryer with an 1800w heater. You will need a dedicated
circuit for it, but any modern kitchen should have several. Don't expect
miracles. It is unlikely that any 1800w fryer will do well with more
than two pounds of french fries.

I have a small commercial fryer with that wattage and it works fairly
well. I seldom use it because it takes 5 quarts of oil and there are
only two of us now.

Get one of these:

and one of these:

You can easily get the oil hot enough, and there is enough
volume to handle a reasonable amount of stuff. I started
doing funnel cakes with a setup like this. I have moved
on to a larger burner and pot for festival scale production,
but the small butane stove and 10 qt. pot are always on
hand as backup.

I like the basket, thinking: this would be nice in stainless. This size is
$20 -- the next one up is $191 in stainless.

Wow, $15 for a table top butane cooktop? Count me in on that one! I've
wanted one for a long time, but I never saw one that cheap that wasn't
trashed.

Yeah, that did seem like a pretty good price, but not outrageously
so. I didn't look at shipping cost, if any. It was just an
example anyway. I can buy these at a local ethnic food market
for about the same price, and they have the butane canisters for
cheap, too. The big aluminum pot with fry basket I found at
the local Lowes.
