Using this Nella fryer basket is a breeze. For deep frying, simply place your medium - battered food in the basket and gently lower it into the hot oil. Make sure the oil level is appropriate and the fryer or pot can accommodate the basket. When using it for straining, just pour your cooked food through the basket to separate the liquid. For boiling or blanching, put your ingredients in the basket and immerse it in boiling water. As for skimming, use the basket to remove any unwanted debris from the surface of the liquid. When it comes to maintenance, after each use, wash the basket with warm, soapy water. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the nickel plating. Rinse it thoroughly and dry it completely to prevent rusting. Store it in a dry place. And always be careful when handling the basket, especially when it's hot, to avoid burns.
