Concerned cook here! 🍳 I've got a question about silicone spatulas. 🔥😬 Can they handle the heat of frying without melting or releasing harmful chemicals? 🤔 I'm a bit worried about safety and want to make sure I'm using the right tools for the job. Any insights and experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys! 🙏

So glad you're thinking about safety! ⚠️✨ Silicone spatulas are awesome for frying. Just double-check the temp limits and watch out for scratches! Enjoy safety cooking! 🍳👍
 
While silicone spatulas are generally heat-resistant and can withstand temperatures up to a certain point, it's essential to use caution when using them for frying. Most silicone spatulas are heat-resistant up to around 600°F (315°C), which should be sufficient for typical frying temperatures. 🍳🔥👩‍🍳

Appreciate your input! Silicone spatulas are definitely my go-to for frying now, so much gentler on my pans than metal ones 😁
