Raise your hand.

I haven't touched it in a couple of years. At least not since moving. I think it may be the cleanup involved. I do have fond memories of the night I made hushpuppies. Mostly I made onion rings and fries.
-
I do, but I swore off the thing.
-
Can anybody revive their deep fryer love? It's like an infatuation at first, but then one day it just stops.
-
What the hell is wrong with you guys? We use ours every week. :D
-
I tried making falafels once, but they turned the oil into a lovely, oozing, mush. No, it was in no way my fault; I refuse to accept blame for that. It was all the fryer. Collecting dust on a shelf is it's punishment.

Same thing with waffle irons, too.

What do you make?
I need a tasty recipe to revive my love.

Is it mostly Asian food you make with it?
We have one but its a bitch to clean, so it doesn't get used. :-\
-
Technically there's nothing you can make with a deep fryer that you can't make with a big friggin' pot full of oil.
-
I'd probably try to make wings in a deep fryer, but I have a feeling they wouldn't match the ones I've mastered in the broiler. Holy shit those are good.

You can put just about anything into that sucker.
-
Yeah, like CG said, we make our fried fish in a big pot filled with oil. Same for chicken.
-
OMG Calamari! Wilco, Crystal invite me over one day!
-
mmm calimari
I may do that
-
Calimari omg
Is it possible to just buy some frozen calimari you can heat in the oven like fish sticks? :-\
-

It would probably just be the same if you sliced up some tires and microwaved them.
-

I have bought a package like that, but it wasn't nearly as good. Lost all crispiness and was just rubbery to hell.

Dammit. I know frozen shrimp is actually pretty good out of the oven.
-
I have one.
Well, I live in a house that has one. Gram used to use it to make chicken wings every Saturday night. She'd give their chihuahua the leftovers. He weighed like 20 pounds. True story.

this seems to be the case with most new items in the kitchen.
-
oh and btw, calimari is disgusting.

How can you like tuna yet hate calimari? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE

tuna and lobster: the only things from the water that I'll dare eat. calimari is horrible. My mom tricked me a few years ago because she thought my distaste for seafood was in my head. So she brought me calimari and told me it was chicken, I took a bite and spit that shit in her face and said "Bitch, this isn't chicken? Do you think I'm black or something? Get that shit outta my face"
-
Lobster is good, but tuna??
Did you get those shitty tuna sammich school lunches? The tuna came in a football slab? It stuck together like playdough and slowly absorbed the bread around it. *shudder*I hated that. You coudln't even trade that shit for a single handipack cracker.
-
i thought that was delicious. tuna (especially with mayo, mustard, pickles) is totally omg. i'd fuck a pig for some tuna right now.
-
Ever since I drank a tuna shake (tuna in mixer, blend with water...omfg) after a training session, I am not eating that shit for a long time again. That was seriously the worst thing I ever ate, right after chocolate milk mixed with fanta.

Why would you drink that? Either of those things? EW.
-
For the protein.
-
Deep frying in general gives me the health heebie jeebies. :o I thought about getting one just so I could do proper Belgian fries for traditional preperation of moules-frites and steak-frites, but as it turns out I found a roasted potato recipe that tastes as good and is way healthier (in small amounts, after all they ARE potatoes).
A proper wafflemaker and a raclette set are my two novelty kitchen items.

Everyone needs a fry daddy. You can't make fried green tomatoes without one. :drool
