The experts from the field of fluid dynamics were inspired by the kitchen hack used to test tempura-frying oil where you wet the end of a chopstick, stick it into the oil, and listen. According to Tadd Truscott, one of the researchers in the study, “if you hear really loud popping or crackling, it’s probably too hot.” The oil is ready if “ there’s sort of this nice bubbling sound. [It] almost feels like a song to some people, as it was described to me once.” he added.
