Is It Healthy To Reuse Cooking Oil That Had Been Used For Deep-frying?

I meant in the context of everyday home-cooking, not at a restaurant. If it’s okay to reuse, what’s the best way to store the “used” oil?

Yes you can do it. Just beware that oil will go rancid after a period of storage or excessive reuse. It will also get a taste to it.. depending on what you fry. I’d always fry onion rings last because it’ll flavor it. So will fish, etc. At my folk’s house.. we usually fry the meat first and then the vegetables. They usually come out ok but pay attention to how burned your ‘crumbs’ get.. nothing tastes worse than burned oil. Ick.
Oh and potstickers are really bad abt flavoring the oil. Generally anything that smells pungent will flavor your oil.

if you can see through it, you can use it still.
let it cool. funnel it back into the original container, or into clean and dried out milk jug.
label it with the name of the food you cooked in it, so you’ll know what to use it for next time. you don’t wanna fry FF in oil that was used to fry fish.

No! Yuk! and gross! I don’t want my chicken deep fried in filtered fish grease. And I do not want my fish deep fried in filtered chicken grease. I don’t deep fry that often, so I always start out with fresh oil.

Of course, it is an average thing in a normal household. You store it in a special pot I don’t know what it’s called. Wal*Mart will tell you though!!!!!!!!!!!
