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.

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.
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
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. I doubt that the type of potato makes any difference but normally I have Idaho type potatoes in the fridge. And I don't care what the experts say potatoes last two or three times longer in the fridge than sitting out.
madej5 the reasoning behind why you shouldn't put potatoes and onions in the fridge is because they release sugars that cause cancer, that's what my grandma told me she use to work for a doctor 😊😊😊
@@misterj2207 That's true. I no longer eat potatoes. Not because of the fridge thing but because they are full of unhealthy sugars. I avoid all fruit, grains, high carb vegetables.
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...
@@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.

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.

Nice sharing po ngayun meron na akong idea Kung paano mapag kikitaan Ang mga used oil na hinihingi ko na galing sa restaurant na AKing pinagtatrabahoan
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.
So we change our oil in our 2 fryers once a week, what would the measurements be if you were doing around 40 litres? Is it worth it, our oil would be in pretty bad shape near the end of the week
I think it's to absorb the smaller impurities that contribute to rancid smells from used oil. The impurities would otherwise go right through your strainer.
Anyone know why used once, cleaned and stored in the fridge oil would separate? It looks like there are solids in it now? Is that rancidity? It was soybean/vegetable oil. Thanks,
It separates because it's in a solution with something solid and needs to either be stirred again or there is water in there that needs to be drained off.
It seems good information. But I did not able to understand what are the ingredents you used?and high volume music.can you tell me the ingredents u used/minut
Hello Dear, I used only 1/4 cup Water & 3tbsp Corn Starch. Also i have mentioned everything in the video pls watch the video in full screen... ) thank you
You can reuse frying oil indefinitely as long as you strain out all the bull crap I used to work at McDonald's they never changed the oil and their fried stuff taste good
@@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.
That’s weird. I was a manager at Mcds and they did it once a week after midnight. and they were filtered every night. I was the person who had to instruct them to do so. I live in Canada tho. Other places might be diffrent.
I haven't tested this but staining doesn't catch the microscopic molecules that contribute to the smell of used oil. You'd hope whatever technique, like this one, drives those out of the oil into the waste layer (the water/cornstarch solution)
I try to strain my oil after every use. I use the same kind of mini strainer that was used in this video. The oil I'm currently using has been used twice the first time I strained it it came out perfectly clear this time however it's super dark and smells. Straining your oil is not going to do to it what this process obviously does

The splashing happens due to the difference of tempter between the water and the oil , if they both are mixed together while cold then heated evenly then no splashing will occur.

@@OTOWN2STOCKTOWN altered flavor isn't a concern of yours? Really?it's definitely a big concern LOL I mean we want our food to taste good don't we? If taste was of no importance, we would simply use methods other than frying our food in heart destroying oil. yummmm I'm salivating at the thought of that porterhouse steak I'm going to put in my steamer basket.
Clean oil.....For some small applications yes, but for engines or anything running hot "no" is my theory. It's all in the oil additives breaking down, sure filtering/cleaning the oil removes files and debri.....but it's all in the additive package for heat/soot dispersion/lubricity retention.
All I do is allow to settle and cool. Afterwards I put it in the freezer. When next I use it, I scrape out as much as I need and leave the big bits behind. No, I don't get as much oil as I started with but it's better than going without, if i don't have the wherewithal to get more.
Alternatively you could do what most people do - sieve the used oil and re-use it several times, before replacing with new! That cornflour trick is a lot of work.

In a restaurant scale, you should use a oil filter machine that professionally filters the oil.

Great. Thank you. What can one use in place of corn starch
Manioc flour
Tapioca starch
Corn flour which is another word for corn starch in some countries
Does this method removes burnt smell from oil? Please reply
Yes but not 100%
Is it healthy?
Does this work for scented oils that have smell
Very nice how clean the oil looks, but I guess that's not doable when using several gallons to deep fry a turkey.
Facts
i just use a micro strainer and it cleans up the oil.
Same, I don't see a point in doing this method when just straining it gives the same result and takes far less time
U use tissue paper on strainer also??
