How to Cook Fried Food Safely to Avoid Dangerous Oil Explosions

  7 Februari 2025 21:10

Brilio.net - Fried food can be made from various ingredients, either as a side dish or a snack. This menu is a mainstay for many people because it is practical to make and the results are crispy. However, cooking fried food often faces obstacles, such as explosions of cooking oil that can spread in all directions when cooking fried fish, fried chicken, fried eggs, and others.

Oil explosions that hit the skin can cause redness and stinging, and can even cause skin blisters if the hot oil that explodes is quite a lot. To avoid this, it is better to set the stove flame so that it is not too high and make sure the ingredients are not wet before being put into the hot oil, to prevent a large oil explosion.

However, if you have already been splashed with oil, you don't need to worry because there are a number of tricks to overcome it. Generally, most people use toothpaste or honey. However, there is one more trick from a netizen familiarly called Patricia. She has another ingredient that is no less effective in reducing the burning sensation on the skin after being exposed to hot oil.

"I've tried this myself, hopefully it's useful," he said, quoted by brilio.net from TikTok @www.tiktok.vitalrecords on Friday (7/2).

Initially, after the skin is exposed to hot oil, immediately wipe it using a clean, dry cloth until there is no more oil left. Then, prepare any type of flour that is at home. Patricia said, this time she used wheat flour.
