Guest guest Posted June 5, 2009 Report Share Posted June 5, 2009 I, too, use peanut oil in a cast iron pot. I leave the lid on while the oil is heating - gets it nice and hot, then test it by dropping a tiny bit of whatever I'm frying into the oil. If it doesn't start bubbling up and frying immediately I wait a bit longer. There are thermometers you can buy if you do not have an electric fryer.- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
