Customer Review: Avid home cook: 0 stars
Summary: 1 Stars
I didn't expect much from this fryer, and it didn't deliver even my modest expectations. I'm an avid fisherman, love to fry fresh drum/trout/redfish/flounder, preferably w/o the hassle of a heavy cast iron bowl and flame in the garage.
A good fryer must be able to recover from room temp foods being dropped into the oil. 8 small pieces of fish, each about the size of your thumb, dropped the temperature 50 degrees. The fish was battered with only egg and panko bread crumbs. Not a lot of mass.
A good fryer must be able to heat to its stated temperature. At 375 degree setting, it only could manage 325 degrees according to my digital thermometer.
Result of low heat and poor temperature recovery? GREASY FOOD!
Light, good tasting fried food can only be had if your fryer maintains its set temperature. This thing couldn't get to the right temp nor maintain what it got to.
Utter garbage.
The TFal/Emeril unit works much better. It's not rocket science: you need a lot of oil with a lot of heating capacity and/or a bowl that has high heat capacity (eg, cast iron) to prevent the temp from dropping too much when food hits the oil.
Don't waste your money. I would like a small fryer that used a proper heating element and a heavy duty, cast iron bowl to retain heat. Oh, and make everything dishwasher safe.
TIA.
