## Questions & Answers

**Q: What temperature does this thing cook at? Does it cook at 350 degree F?**
A: Using a candy thermometer, mine goes beyond 400 degrees Fahrenheit and when I cook with it, it cooks the outside just fine but the inside stays raw. I was also using breaded chicken that had sat out to room temperature.

**Q: Does this splatter very much while cooking?**
A: YOU ABSOLUTELY "MUST" BUY A SPLATTER SCREEN TO GO WITH IT. IT WILL SPATTER OIL. HOW MUCH DEPENDS ON THE MOISTURE CONTENT OF THE FOOD AND HOW QUICKLY YOU ADD IT. ALSO DO NOT FOLLOW THE COOKING INSTRUCTIONS OR YOU'LL OVER COOK EVERYTHING BIG TIME. AS AN EXAMPLE INSTRUCTIONS SAY 4-8 MINUTES FOR SHRIMP. REALITY IS ABOUT 2 MINUTES 10 SECONDS.  FRIES - BOOK SAYS 8-10 MINUTES - REALITY IS ABOUT 4 MINUTES LESS IF THIN CUT. FISH FILLETS - BOOK SAYS 4 TO 8 MINUTES - REALITY IS 3 TO 4 MINUTES DEPENDING ON THICKNESS OF THE FILLETS.  BE SURE TO PREHEAT FOR JUST 15 MINUTES. THAT PART THE CHINESE GOT RIGHT. AS A GENERAL RULE OF THUMB WHEN WHAT YOUR COOKING FLOATS ON TOP OF THE OIL ITS DONE. YOU'LL LEARN AS YOU GO . IT IS A GREAT FRYER EXCEPT YOU CAN'T PUT A LARGE AMOUNT IN A ONE TIME. DO NOT GET THE LARGER FRY GRAND DADDY IT SUCKS. IT JUST DOES NOT HEAT THE OIL HOT ENOUGH.

**Q: where is this made?**
A: Like everything else-- apparently designed  in America (Wisconsin).  Made in China.  Be that as it may-- this is a grand little fry pot.  Holds a lot.  The heat is controlled and delivers a lovely finished product.  Easy to clean. It is definitely a FIVE STAR in this house hold.  Shrimp, Oysters, fish sticks, chicken wings, donuts-- they all come out just perfect.  Great price and you know how quick Amazon can get it to your door!

**Q: How many watts is this cooker?**
A: 1200 watts,very nice fryer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***J on February 6, 2022*

I have been researching mini deep fryers for months. All I wanted was a small, uncomplicated fryer that didn’t require lots of oil and was easy to clean. Then I came across the Fry Daddy - the size looked perfect but it seemed like such a basic unit compared to the other more “fancy” deep fryers. For example the Fry Daddy has no temperature control dial and no wire basket. So I went to the manufacturer’s website and watched their video and learned that the temperature is perfectly controlled. The oil heats up and maintains a steady perfect temperature for deep frying. The reason there is no wire basket is that wire baskets take up area in the unit AND are very messy when removed, oil drips all over the place. That made perfect sense to me. Then I moved onto online reviews starting with America’s Test Kitchen whom I normally trust but they gave it such an awful review that I decided to read some of the comments and so many people who owned the Fry Daddy said otherwise, they were upset that ATK was recommending the fancier brands and not giving the FD credit where credit was due. I agreed, ATK can be very snobbish in their reviews. They also made fun of the plastic spoon that comes with the FD - take it from me - IT WORKS. Sure it will melt if you leave it in boiling oil! But it works just fine to remove cooked food. They also did not consider the mess factor of a wire basket and made derogatory comments about the absence of that. Next, I watched video reviews by “real” everyday people - and the more I watched the more I knew this was the fryer I wanted. The day it arrived I deep fried fresh cod in batter (homemade) and also some large shrimp. I was able to fry 3 thick pieces of fish in one batch and all 8 shrimp at once. I knew the minute I took the fish out to drain on paper towels that the fish was NOT oily! I was thrilled. This proves that the oil IS maintained at the perfect temperature for frying. The fryer uses only 4 cups of oil. You can store the oil in the unit (it comes with a plastic lid - only seal once the oil is completely cooled down) but I didn’t do that because we don’t deep fry that often. So I strained it and poured it into a clean jar to reuse another time. Cleanup was A BREEZE! A gentle wash with dish soap (not submerged of course) and dried with paper towels. The unit is non-stick which makes cleaning even easier. This small unassuming little fryer is perfect for a couple or small family. It takes up very little room and if you’re buying it in the US it is very affordable. I think it is worth every CAD$ I paid for it on Amazon.
