This is a great tip I saw on the Rachel Ray Show:
How can you tell when the frying oil you are heating up is hot enough? Place the handle end of a wooden spoon into the middle of your pan. If the little bubbles of oil rapidly dance around your handle, the oil is ready! I've tried it and it really works.Check out more great tips at Rocks In My Dryer.

That sounds so neat! I would try it but i don't have a wooden spoon...i love them but have not figured out how to keep them clean? Mine gets all icky looking. Got any tips for that?
(thanks for stopping by my blog! :))
I've been wanting to try it out ever since I saw her do that, but I always forget until after I'm done cooking. lol Thanks for the reminder. Just a few more times and it may actually become a part of my cooking process!!
Have a great day!

Thanks! I'll try that next time. It's always a guess for me. : )
Great tip- definitely less 'splattery' than my current method of flicking drops of water into the pan!
Great tip!
Oh I'm a RR fan too and I remember that one - thanks for reminding me.
I've done this and it really does work! Another trick is to put a single kernel of unpopped popcorn in the skillet. When it pops, you've hit 350 degrees, which is a good frying temp!
