Hot Oil is Rarely Your Friend

This photo is of a food thermometer hanging out in a pot of oil, which is about to fry some ice cream coated in cornflakes. I can’t say how many times I’ve undercooked or burned something while trying to fry it due to a lack of correct temperature (which, for frying, is 350 degrees Fahrenheit). Thus, I’ve learned that a food thermometer is an absolutely integral part of anyone’s kitchen. I’ve also unfortunately learned that sometimes, guesswork isn’t the best way to cook.
