Does anyone here besides DragonSlayer react to fried protein? I use palm olein for cooking which I read has a high-smoke point and is therefore suitable for frying. I'm not crazy about fried food but it would be nice to have it once in a while if I want some crunch to my food. It can also be an option when I'm eating out.

Can't say I have ever really been into "deep frying" but I do shallow fry chicken and fish - sometimes coated in crushed flaked almonds or sesame seeds. With the almonds, I dip into thinned Greek yoghurt or buttermilk first... delicious!

I just go slowly and gently, as the high heat makes them burn.

Hi,
I dont think I react to fried food so long as I dont overdo it or have it in a flare (still learning about what affects me) I dont have that much but like a homemade burger or omelette every now and again. I was using coconut oil as that has a higher smoke point but wasn't always keen on the taste. I now use homemade ghee:

Good quality unsalted butter in a dish (small loaf tin perfect for one pack) put in oven at 100degC for about an hour. When the butter has melted and separated into layers pour off the golden clear liquid top layer and keep, you are supposed to do this through a sieve lined with cheesecloth but I have never bothered.

I have read that it doesnt need to be kept in the fridge and will keep well for many months. The butter I use separates with the clear layer on the top but I have read that with some makes the clear golden layer is at the bottom. The other layer is more butter coloured.

Apparently people react less to ghee than butter even though it is dairy as the possible 'irritants are removed'.
