With the recent advances in technology, deep fryers are no longer what they used to; with hot-to-touch exteriors and surfaces and the ever-present likelihood of burning your food. There are now many different types of cool touch electric deep fryers available in the market by many different manufacturers. The Presto Cool Daddy deep fryer is one appliance that needs no introduction to many users all over the world.
Never having used this particular model, I had mixed-feelings as I plugged in the appliance the first time. The manufacturer's advertisements claimed that it was perfect for up to 6 servings and, true enough, it passed this test with flying colors. Although the initial heating of the oil took longer than expected, everything else went smoothly.
The Presto 05444 Cool Daddy deep fryer comes with a 1-year limited warranty and runs on 120 volts AC at 1500 watts, a big enough wattage for serious use. The machine produces perfectly delicious, crispy and crunchy fried foods - loved by so many - such as chicken, shrimp, French Fries and onion rings.
Like all good fryers, the exterior handle allows food to be lowered into the oil without having to open the lid, i.e. you close the lid with the wire mesh above the oil,, which is then lowered. This means after the initial loading of food, the lid never need to be opened until it is done; a good safety device.
The extra large window allows you to see what's going on inside without having to open the cover. The cover comes with a locking-device to prevent odors and splattering so your home remains safe and odor-free; while fried food does taste delicious it's lingering odors are not always so welcome. The odors are filtered by a charcoal air filter system which can be easily replaced.
The adjustable thermostat allows you to select the desired temperature while the indicator will light up when the oil is heated enough for frying.
The final selling point for me was the ease of cleaning the appliance, with a non-stick pot that is easily removed from the base - it passed with ease. It can be cleaned with hot-soapy water or can even be put in the dishwasher. For me, that is a 'must-have' requirement of any fryer, as cleaning up can be a pain in the neck.
I'm happy to report that, although the Presto Cool Daddy deep fryer took longer than I expected for the oil to heat, everything else was just perfect. For me, it is definitely the best cool touch electric deep fryer money can get you - just putting the T-Fal EZ Clean (another appliance I'd recommend) into second place.
