When you are finished deep frying in hot oil, there are a few important safety steps to take. First, turn off the heat source and allow the oil to cool slightly. Then, carefully pour the oil into a heat-safe container. Finally, dispose of the oil properly.
Pouring Hot Oil
The first step is to turn off the heat source and allow the oil to cool slightly. This will help prevent any accidents when pouring the hot oil. Next, find a heat-safe container that is large enough to hold all of the used cooking oil. Slowly and carefully pour the hot oil into the container, taking care not to splash or burn yourself.
Disposing of Used Cooking Oil
Once all of the used cooking oil has been transferred into a safe container, it's time to dispose of it properly. The best way to do this is by taking it to a local recycling center that accepts used cooking oil. Most centers will have special containers for you to safely deposit your used cooking oil in.
