Fried Food will Kill Ya!

Fried Food will Kill Ya! But what a way to go!! This is a down home how to fry handbook. It tells you the best methods of frying for different foods. It covers how to get the most out of your oils and explains the different oils and their qualities and when or how you would use them, along with the different temperatures and time for different types of food. Rick also goes over SAFETY and things you need to be careful of when cooking with hot oils. Then there are the recipes, I hate recipe books that are full of crazy recipes the common Joe would never try or have the time or ingredients to make, we have all seen those, well NOT HERE! These are recipes you are more than likely going to use, maybe not all of them, but a lot of them if you are interested in frying food. And the results are Yummy. It may not be the healthiest way to eat, but if you are going to have some deep fried food shouldn't it be the best tasting batch you can make/eat?? 5 Stars and 2 thumbs up from me!

Deep fryer heaven

This book is a hoot. We purchased it particularly for the deep fried turkey recipe, but there's lots more - all very entertaining, and terrific ideas both for theme dinners and the "what should I bring" quandry - trust me, you'll never duplicate what anyone else brings to the table!

Great book! Great Price!!

My husband loves this book. There are recipes to fry anything you can think of -- candy bars, twinkies. Then there are the old stand-bys: churros, fried ice cream. He took it to work, and all the guys loved flipping through it.

Awsome

There are some awsome recipes in here, including one for believe it or not, fried oreo cookies. There are useful frying tips too which I won't give away so as not to spoil the book. I almost gave it four stars for not having any nutritional information on the recipes, but it's obvioulsy not a sin not to include it, I hope he does in a second edition however.

Great Fry Book!!!

Like the title indicates, it has recipes for most anything you can think of frying. It also provides good information on the basics of safe frying and oil selection. I've found the general cooking times it suggests quite helpful for experimenting outside of recipes. The only problem I have is the unique names for common dishes makes finding the recipes a little challenging, but is not a big deal.
