Squeezing lemon juice into a pan of oil before frying has surprising benefits that many people don’t know about! Here’s why you should try this trick:
1. Prevents oil splattering 🔥
Lemon juice contains citric acid, which reduces the surface tension of the oil.
This helps prevent excessive splattering, making frying safer and cleaner.
2. Reduces 👃🍋 odors
Frying fish or strong-smelling foods can leave lasting odors.
A few drops of lemon juice help neutralize unpleasant odors and leave a fresher aroma.
3. Increases the crispiness of fried foods 🍗
The acidity of the lemon balances the pH of the oil, so foods cook more evenly.
This results in a crispier, more golden brown texture.
