    Higher heat. More oil. A splash of water too.

    Put the top back on
    or pour a large amount of salt on it if it isn't deep oil
    you should have a fire extinguisher in your kitchen. Get a fire extinguisher if you don't have one, seriously.

    1. Always have a fire extinguisher handy and know how to use it.

    2. Always have an available metal lid for everything you are using to cook to smother the flame.

    3. Don't be a fucking retard.

        fire extinguishers don't really expire they just need to be checked every once in a while to make sure they are still charged and a tiny leak didn't exhaust all of the propellant

    I have a fire blanket. I also had an extinguisher but it needed regassing maintainence which I wasn't gonna commit to keep doing so I got rid of it. Fire blankets seem pretty based as a result.

    I haven't ever had to use either.

    Just cram it. Lack of oxygen will suffocate the fire.

    Take the pan/pot out of the heat source and just let it extinguish on its own. If there is too many flames I would throw cold oil on it.
    Still, I never set anything on fire.

    Get everything going in a crockpot before you set the fire.

    Depends on the kind of fire. If it's an oil or grease fire you want to throw as much water as possible on it. If it's any other kind of fire you should throw a dry towel on it to kill the oxygen.

      YIKES! Putting water on an oil fire makes things much worse because it vaporizes pretty much instantly and spreads burning oil all over.
      There are some awesome videos of this.

        Let's educate some people on Culinaly about burning oil.

        The reason you should never put water into hot oil or burning oil is because oil sits on top of water.

        So when water drops go into oil it immediately travels to the bottom of the container, where it "explodes" and throws burning hot oil all over the room.

          For me knowing WHY you should never put water into hot oil helps me remember that you should not do it.

          Also the safest way to extinguish kitchen fires that aren't completely out of control yet is to put a lid on the pot. If there's no lid putting a frying pan over the pot might work? Maybe works to put another frying pan into a burning fire pan. Though I am fortunate enough to have never needed to try this.

          A fire blanket is good to have handy. Fire extinguisher probably makes way more of a mess than a fire blanket.

      Any time I’m cooking with oil I have a ton of baking soda nearby.

        probably better to just make sure you always have a metal lid nearby that you can cover the pot or pan with, since without oxygen the fire is guaranteed to stop. just make sure it isn't a glass lid since they shatter.

    I've heard that you can put a pan fire inside an oven to suffocate it while you go grab the extinguisher

      Why would you suffocate an oven?

    Cut the heat and dump an entire bag of flour on it. If fire persists, dump more flour. If fire continues to persist, break out an extinguisher. If you lack one, call the fire department.

    When I was new to cooking I had a *bunch* of butter spill onto the heating element under the pan because I'm a retard and it started a relatively small fire, but it was big enough to be pretty spooky. Didn't have any baking soda or an extinguisher at the time but I got a towel from the dirty laundry, got it damp in the sink really quick and smothered it with that and it worked like a charm. So that's another option if you have nothing else on hand.

      I was thinking the same thing. I mean I have had fires in my mom's toaster before I moved out because I was playing videogame or something and forgot about it. put I just put the towel on it and then put it outside for the smoke.

      I once let a pan overheat and the oil smoked and lit as soon as it hit the pan. Then I made some popcorn in the microwave the other night and it just caught fire about 5 seconds in. Sometimes shit just happens, IDK. But even though I'm retarded, I can still put the fires out with minimal issues.

      I dunno about other cooklets here, but I start a fire anytime I am cooking, deliberately. I cook with gas baby! Or I am smoking stuff, and that requires a slow burn.

      Never set my kitchen on fire, but I do set the smoke alarms off. Was silly and bought house with improper vent system. Too cheap to fix it.
