How long do you use the same batch of oil for frying before tossing it out?

Answer 1

I use it once... and then toss it out. I can't stand the thought of re-using oil... yuck!

Perhaps one of the reasons, I do not eat fried food from fast foot restaurants.. no french fries for me!

Answer 2

Once if I fry seafood. Twice for anything else. Reused oil makes your food greasy and the taste isn't good.

Answer 3

if you have a big quantity of it, you might try giving it to someone in your town who uses it to make bio-diesel.'

They often like to use peanut oil, like from turkey fryers, but they will often take some other kinds, too
The guy right next door to my workplace makes his own for his Mercedes, so I always take ours to him. We have a lot of tacos, So its only about an inch in the bottom of the pan, but I save it up in a milk jug till its full, then take it to him. But I use fresh oil each time, It doesnt taste as good to reuse it.

Answer 4

you should only use it a few times!!!!maybe once or twice, not several months...cuz the more u use it, the more free radicals in it.

free radicals are very dangerous; they may damage almost everything in ur system...proteins, carbs, DNA.....and they may eventually cause cancer

so make sure u don't use the same oil over and over and over again ;)

Answer 5

it gets thrown out right after using it. used oils hold in odors and tastes of foods that you were frying. you don,t want other foods to get tainted with their tastes. ie: fish with chicken and ect.

Answer 6

I only use it a couple of times before pouring it out. It starts to smell funny.

Answer 7

1 time!

Answer 8

It depends certainly. If I'm using it to make a whole lotta deepfry, then I use it until I'm done, but If I use it once, I throw it out

Answer 9

I never fry. I always baked,saute or grill. Much healthier( =

Answer 10

I know you can use it a few times, but I only use it once. My mom used to refrigerate bacon grease for use later eww..
