LaSyL Natural Cooking Oil Solidifier Powder, Harden Up to 2.25 Gallon of Fry Oil Away from Mess, 100% Plant-Based Oil Hardener for Disposal, Value Pack 12 Oz

I *love* this stuff. Works exceptionally well and super easy. Just make sure you add to hot oil (sometimes I reheat the oil before adding), mix, it well, and give it time to cool. Recently used to solidify a pot of 2 cups of oil used to deep fry some food. Worried it wouldn't work. Worked perfectly. Oil solidified and came out of the pot in one lump into the trash. Much better than saving old bottles of used cooking oil.

This is the third time I’ve purchased this product, and since discovering it, I can’t live without it! I never knew what to do with used oil, and even when I put it in multiple bags to throw away with the regular trash, it would sometimes leak and make a huge mess. This product completely changed that and makes disposing of oil so much easier. I highly recommend it.

Amazing product

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

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.

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 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!

It works, but it seemed like I had to use a lot to get the effect desired. Make sure red instructions again and it’s just cost too much to be able to get it like you want it so it’s a great product if you absolutely have no choice and you don’t cook with all that much but I only got two good uses out of it when I’ve cooked up my fryer with you know french fries and chicken and different things so product does work for sure no doubt but for me it was just too much money for what I get out of it but I think it’s great for someone that know has a little pan of all, and you know no other way of getting rid of it.

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.
