I didn't have a thermometer w/ me so i just put a small piece of bread in the oil every few min. until it was hot enough. but i try to get oil to at least 350 before i fry anything.
Never tried freezing ? i think that the bread would get soggy when thawing. I bet you could make the mixture and freeze it in portions for 4 and thaw and stuff them pistoletts before frying. You could also just cut the recipe down to size?
