Reusing deep fryer oil after straining and carcinogenic risks

Question

I need to know if its safe to reuse deep fryer oil if you strain it. Is it carcinogenic. Your trying to save money on meal prep. 🍟🤔

Answer 1

Reusing oil is a great way to save money on your meal prep batches. Just make sure you filter out any debris so it doesn't go rancid in your containers.

I usually get a few uses out of it before I swap it for a fresh batch. If the oil starts to look dark or foams up, it's definitely time to toss it.

Answer 2

its fine if you strain it well and dont heat it too high because your going to ruin the oil quality otherwise!!! just watch out for the smoke point...

Answer 3

It is fine for the pocket to use it again. My wife always strained it through a cloth. Do not let it get too hot, my friend.

Answer 4

It is safe to reuse a few times if you filter it properly. Just check the color and smell before you start your dinner.

Answer 5

straining it is a great budget hack for the pantry!!! just dont let it get too dark or it tastes funky... and dont mix different oils???

Answer 6

i just use it until it smells bad because these new health scares are usually nonsense anyway but do keep it clean
