Waste Cooking Oil Solidifier

My son used this powder while in culinary school and suggested I order some for when I deep fried foods like fish. It really works and is easy to use! You sprinkle a bit into your pan with the oil, heat up the pan and stir until it dissolves, turn off the heat and let it sit. The powder solidifies into a whitish color and you can use a spatula to scrape out the hardened oil into the trash. No more runny oil at the bottom of the trash can! Even using this in the summer, it stayed solid and didn’t melt in the heat.

This is so convenient to use and works great and easy. A very little can absorb most oil for regular cooking. It's a nice white color. You get a lot for the money. Good amount.

I was always worried about disposing of used grease. Back in the day we'd just dump it by the ditch. With coyotes and other wild animals starting to come into town more often, it just makes sense to not bait them. One little scoop of this solidifier to one cup of grease and then stir it in while it's hot. Wait to cool. Scrape out into the trash. It works good enough that cleaning skillet or pot later is a breeze. Easy peasy.

This works as advertised. However, the bottle is small and you need a lot of the product to solidify.

This stuff is fantastic. I no longer need a yucky tin can in my freezer to store up cooking grease for disposal, and I'm not pouring oils down the sink drain. After cooking, one just scoops some of this stuff into the warm pan and allows it to dissolve in the oil. After it cools, it solidifies and you can just toss it in the trash. There is no odor.

We don't fry food very often, but when we do we discard the oil and this solidifier works great. I add one scoop per cup of oil and haven't had any issues so far.

This product had all the potential but didn't come close to delivering! I wasn't able to return it, so I'm making the most of it. I didn't want to keep wasting paper towels and dabbing up the grease, which is what I have done in the past. I ended up using more paper towels cleaning up the awful mess and residue this garbage left behind. It comes with a little scoop, but that amount of granules in one scoop was worthless. I had to dump quite a bit in the pan to absorb grease from a half dozen pieces of bacon. The tiny bit of granules that the spoon holds wasn't enough to do anything but swim around in the pam. When the granules hardened, ideally it would come out in a big piece or two to toss in the garbage. It did break apart into pieces but it left an incredible mess in my pan. Think melting a candle and having the tiny wax pieces ALL over the pan and smeared up the sides. I didn't want to scrape the pan too hard and scratch it, but a light rub did absolutely nothing to remove the wax particles. I used a ton of paper towels and am still left with the slippery, waxy residue on the pan. What a lot of work and so wasteful. It's not even worth using the rest of the container and risk scratching my pan. It's going in the garbage. Not worth this purchase!

great product..the best thing they've created to get rid of grease "cleanly".

The LaSyL natural cooking oil solidifier has made dealing with used frying oil much easier and less messy, and it does exactly what it promises when used as directed. After cooking, once the oil has cooled slightly, one level scoop per cup of oil is all that is needed; within a short time the mixture firms up into a solid mass that can be scooped out and thrown straight into the trash instead of risking clogged pipes. Because it actually solidifies the oil, there is no greasy residue left in the pan, which makes cleanup quicker and helps keep the sink and drain clear. The most important thing to know is that the instructions really matter: if too little product is used or it is added to oil that is still too hot, it will not set properly. Measuring roughly one scoop per cup and giving it time to work has been very reliable, and a single container stretches through multiple batches of frying oil. For anyone who cooks with oil regularly and wants a cleaner, more environmentally friendly way to dispose of it, this is an easy, effective solution that quickly becomes part of the kitchen routine.

Just a spoonful and it solidyfied the oils in my frypan, which made it easy to throw away when it cooled. So much better for the environment than putting it down the sink.

This item is not bad actually works just need to let it completely cool down

Works amazing

Cooking Chinese sometimes requires oil. The oil is poured in a pot after using it and waits for me to find a container to put it in and hoping not to make a mess. This product turns it into a jelly like consistency and is easy to remove from the pot and then into a compost bag. Love the simplicity. It works perfect. Now I don’t have to dread getting rid of the oil.
