We found the perfect mess-free way to get rid of the oil left in the frying pan.
Before we get to the hack, I want to mention the source. Hadassa Goldberg is a young mom who lives in the South of Israel. She came up with the phrase “Ahavat HaBayit” to replace “Avodat HaBayit” turning chores into a labor of love. She occasionally takes her followers along on her daily ahavat habayit tasks.
Which leads to this hack she came up with for that leftover schnitzel oil. When I saw her doing this, I right away asked for permission to share here and she was happy to help us all out! So here it is:
Brilliant! I never knew it was bad to spill it down the drain. I recently learned otherwise thx for this hack!
Hack #2 : put parchment paper in your frying pan before frying . easiest cleanup . You barely need to wash the frying pan after. If the parchment paper is shifting- spring a little water in the frying pan, before putting down the parchment paper.
Ziplock bag-seals leftover oil before tossing away
Yes ziploc bags. Thats what I always use.
Wow thanks so much for this!!
Why not flush it in the bathroom? If it's oil and not fat that will congeal?
It coats the pipes
Got it thanks!
Ziploc bags and then garbage – always…
I grab a jar and put it on foil, then bring the foil up around it to make the 'well.' Works great!
I pour it in an empty seltzer bottle and toss it.
I soak oil up with paper towels and put in plastic grocery bags then throw in trash can
Unfortunately, my sink is rarely ever empty to be able to do this, LOL.
I do the ziploc thing too, put it in a wide mouth container/measuring cup and fold over the top (kind of like filling a pastry bag with cream). pour in the oil, then zip up and toss…
I didn’t know spilling it in the drain is an issue
Can anyone clarify?
