Paper towel -> trash.

Also a reason why we don’t deep fry something and only fry semi submerged

Good for a cold winter chimney firing.

This depends on what kind of fat it is. Bacon fat I save, then clarify when there’s enough, then use it for cooking.

A little bit of oil in the iron skillet? Pour kosher salt on it when it cools down enough, use the salt & oil to scrub it clean, wipe it out & rinse it (and dry of course).

Duck I render it first and save the fat, then finish cooking it.

I don’t really deep fry so mostly what happens with other cooking oil is I eat it, in the food.

I have a spot in my yard that I pour cooking oil.

Down the drain, the tenant special.

I don’t cook with that much that there is relevant leftovers to begin with. I just wash my pan with soap and hot water.

paper, then boil

Last meal’s leftovers is to season the next meal

Sometimes I save it and put it in the fridge until the wet stuff separates from the fat. I then mix it with lye that I get from wood ash to make really shitty soap that’s okish for doing dishes but not much else. You shouldn’t put this in a washing machine because it will corrode the metal parts, you shouldn’t wash yourself with it because its bad for your skin but I hope to get it to where I never have to buy dish soap again. Every single little consumer product that I can find a way to live without increases my chances of survival under this regime or at least extends things for as long as possible.

I also do paper towels for the bulk, though I try to do it while the pan is still a little warm, and may even heat the pan up a little if needed, so that if it’s a fat that’s solid at room temperature, I can treat it the same way as oil.

Dump it all into an old tin and toss it out once it cools off.

I read this as “How do I deal with leftists regarding the leftover fat or oil in my pain?” I’m sorry.

I pour it into an empty can and freeze it then eventually trash

Are you renting or do you own?
