If the oil has been heated for too long and became dark in color, don't reuse it. It's bad for your cholesterol. Usually I throw away the oil if I've fried 3-4 batches of anything.

Never reuse it once it is used you need to get rid of it by draining it off into an empty can and freezing it until you are ready to throw it into the trash.

Never pour it down the drain it clogs the pipes and garbage disposal

Put it in a clean container with a lid. If you have a clean coffee can with a lid, that works great. I wouldn't use plastic since it could absorb the smell of the oil.

sure, you can reuse it in various ways without problem,but store in clean glass jar, we have been using for ages without any problem.

i usually reuse mine but try not reusing it that much because after a while it gets out of control and the oil gets all over the place

expirience =)

sure you can reuse it it! If you need to, strain it, but otherwise its good for several uses.

Reuse it, filter through coffee filters into container

Strain, Store and Reuse =D

years of cooking exp :3

I would say reuse it. Put some kind of lid on it and store it away.
