To deep fry, choose a deep-fryer, Dutch oven, wok or deep, heavy pan. Add only enough oil to fill one-third of the container. This provides room for the bubbling that occurs when the fish is dropped in and for the space taken up by the food. The seafood should be immersed in the oil. Vegetable oil makes the best medium for deep-frying. Mariner's Menu shares a recipe for Fried Shrimp.

A minute can make a difference. It's like that steak on the grill — give it just a few more seconds and it's overdone. Mariner's Menu shares a recipe for French-Fried Shrimp.

A deep layer allows you to level the oysters in the salt, making them steady and also keeping the contents from spilling out of the uneven shells.
