How can I Clean and Reuse Frying Oil? The Easiest Way to purify / recycle your cooking oil

[@growyourownlegallyincanada6212]

If the slurry is mixed 1/4 cup water to one full tablespoon of cornstarch before adding to cold oil then GENTLY heating the oil/slurry mixture, it will not be volatile. Allow the cleaning process to gently bubble for at least 15 minutes. NOT BOIL. Trust the process. Oil takes a while before it heats up, the water is what makes it bubble. After removing the junk through the filtering process, put clean oil back on the low/medium heat, it will sounds like it’s crackling a bit, that’s any remaining water evaporating. Should take 10-15 minutes. Done.

[@Gerry-il1wn]

Thank You 😮😄👍👏

[@williamkuhns2387]

Place a thin white 100% cotton cloth like a square piece of t-shirt or thin dish cloth over mesh strainer but the oil must be hot otherwise it won't flow through the cloth. Double the results. Make sure it's 100% cotton. Canvas is best. To reuse the cloth filter clean in boiling water to purge the oil residue then squeeze and rinse in water and air dry.

[@__-fl3yt]

You probably can use a filter coffee paper.

[@rhrh4989]

Good looking Out. The cornstarch did nothing but make it cloudy and didn't filter out anything But the thin piece of cloth did the trick. I will be using that coffee filter next time Though so shout up to you too

It should be noted that for something like potato chips, you can use the oil way more times... different foods ruin the oil less than others....

[@71160000]

I simply strain the oil. Next time I use it I chop up an old potato and fry it in the oil. It removes most off flavors from the oil leaving it ready to use.

@@madej5 You can use fresh but if you've got a couple that are beginning to shrivel up they work just fine.

And I don't care what the experts say potatoes last two or three times longer in the fridge than sitting out.

[@malvinderkaur541]

high quality cooking oils have wonderful disposition in giving/retaining food its original flavor, rather absorbing that flavor being cooked in it and gives crunch to frying on the other hand butter and ghee gives their lovely texture and flavor to foods and also health benefits when both are porcessed in pure forms like it used to be in our childhood, the processing of creating oils should retain most of its purity without too much chemical processing...

[@FartSquirel]

@@EruditWenziDobe unless you plan to use the oil for a diesel engine as an example, there's no point in wasting time and energy to do this. You may reuse the oil a fair amount of times let's say up to ten and if there are bits in it you only have to filter it with a fine-mesh strainer and a coffee filter over night. He or she, it doesn't matter, it's just stupid what was said. If you are to worried about no having oil, you can buy a press machine for making oil at home and there are manual and electric from $140.00 to $4000. .. and the sun flower seeds, or any other seed that produces oil. Heck you can even make olive oil out of olives, go figure.

Corn flour which is another word for corn starch in some countries

[@pccebu]

44 DISLIKES? LMFAO Maybe you did it wrong? Tried this today I didn't think it would work but it does WORK!!!!! It makes sense.. the cornstarch absorbs the MICRO "CRAP" in the oil and corn starch is cheap here in the Philippines. Cornstarch is 1-2 USD 2.2 lbs so it's well worth it. I used it with canola oil and also coconut oil works with all oils. Yeah, did my homework before I commented. I used to use to make french fries using old oil and noticed it was clean afterward??? (french fries absorb impurities in any kind of oil, look it up) Ok well, this is the easy way. It does work. NOTE: Strain the crap out first using a paper towel and a strainer. Then do this process to clarify the oil. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Liked and subscribed.

@@Hooman88634 You can use the oil much more than 2-3 times. Dozens and dozens of times at least. Not "forever"... McDonald's changes the oil regularly but they also use it non-stop for countless batches of fries, nuggets, etc.. You can keep oil for a year probably with no problem. Just clean it and SMELL IT. If it smells rancid then replace it. Otherwise it's perfectly fine to keep using.
