Commercial Deep Fryer

Commercial deep fryer

If you are running any kind of commercial kitchen you would need a large deep fryer or your food preparation would be held up, wasting your time and the customers time as well.

A commercial deep fryer is larger and some have multiple sections so one can fry different things at the same time. The oil pool can be the same with multiple baskets that have different foods in them. A commercial deep fryer can be based on electricity and gas as well, most places use an electric one though this has a higher cost in the long run due to it consuming a lot of electricity.

The recovery time of a commercial deep fryer is very important. This means the time it takes for the oil to return to optimum cooking temperature after the food has been put in. If it takes too long the food will be greasy and also soak up a lot of oil, increasing your cost of cooking. A fast recovery time does mean the fryer will consume a bit more power, but the food will be a lot better in taste.

One needs to consider the tank size, but also the tank capacity based on the kind of food you are cooking. Not all fryers have the tank capacity for larger food items, so if that is a need one needs to see if it will fit.

Commercial deep fryers have simple knobs that let you set the temperature to your required level for the food you are cooking and a timer as well, so it is easy to have the food not get burnt.

Comments

The oil in a commercial deep fryer needs to be filtered and also replaced regularly, the frequency depends on how it is used. Most also have sediment zones where particles gather and can be cleaned out, keeping this zone clean means your customers will not have small burnt food debris in their food. In many, the oil tank can be taken out as a separate component, making it easy to clean it too.

The price of a commercial deep fryer depends on its size and the power source it uses, the larger the fryer the more it costs. Prices start at the mid-range for a 6-litre electric option.
