Frying is the cooking of food in oil or fat, a technique that originated in ancient Egypt around 2500BC. Chemically, oils and fats are the same, differing only in melting point, but the distinction is only made when needed. In commerce, many fats are called oils by custom, e.g. palm oil and coconut oil, which are solid at room temperature.

How can i get fried shrimp flour to stay on my shrimp when frying?
Q. I fried some shrimp the batter i used was egg and milk and passed in flour but my flour didnt stay on like i wanted to when frying. any ideas on how to get a good batter without using beer?

A. First coat the shrimp in plain flour, then your wet ingredients, and then the final flavored lour or whatever you are using. I do beer batter on my shrimp, so I go flour then batter (slightly wipe the bottom of the shrimp on the edge of the bowl) then to the fryer. Also another tip is to hold on to the tail for about 10 seconds before relasing it. This will help keep the shrimp from sticking to the bottom, and also other shrimp. If you just drop them all in at once your shrimp may end up sticking together and then you had some with lots of batter and some with hardley any, and they just don't look good.

How to clean burn residue from stainless steel frying pan?
Q. I burnt something in a cuisinart stainless steel frying pan and there's this black layer on the inside of the pan. I've tried a brillo pad and barkeepers friend and neither have worked. I've also let it soaked in soapy hot water and that didn't work either. I really like these pans. Could someone please tell me how I can clean it?
