What on earth are you all cooking to have so much oil left over that you can pour it into anything?
For me it's mostly the deep fryer. When I change the oil it takes about 4 1/2 liters to refill.
My parents could keep that going for a good long time by filtering it through a few layers of kitchen paper, it got rid of a lot of the burnt stuff, came out quite clear each time.
Don't they warn against reusing too much because it breaks down into carcinogens?
Probably, but don't most things these days go out of their way to kill us anyway? 😅
I use paper coffee filters in a metal strainer.
Takes a while, but the oil comes out clear and back to its original colour and flavour after 2 passes.
