There have been a lot of recipes where I've had to use a bunch of paper towels to get the excess liquid out (making bacon to get out the excess fat, when you're frying foods and want them to be dry). Is there a better way of getting the liquid out without just massing tons of paper towels?

    The answers are likely different for deep frying vs. cooking bacon vs removing excess water. Can you rephrase or specify? – moscafj Feb 22 '16 at 00:55

If you have the time, wrapping something in a cheese cloth & suspending it over a bowl can get a lot of liquid out.

Oils become more viscous as they cool, so keeping your product warm can help keep the oils flowing off it. A wire rack over a sheet pan in a low oven can work quite well for removing oil or water from foods, but ensure your product doesn't dry out too much in the process.
