Because of the continued demand for fried meals and increased health consciousness, air fryers have recently become more and more popular. Americans consume more potatoes than other vegetables, and french fries and other frozen goods comprise 40% of this total.
Air fryer brands promote their product by saying that air fryers are used to prepare and consume fried meals without bearing the negative implications of deep oil-fried food. Foods that have been air-fried contain less fat in them than those that have been deep-fried. Therefore, they could be healthier.
- Deep-fried foods often have much more fat than meals prepared in other methods. People can use air fryers to have a more nutritious supper with similar flavours and textures since air fryers use a small amount of oil compared to deep fryers.
- Hot air is circulated around a food item in an air fryer to achieve the same level of crispiness as traditional fried dishes. Air fryers achieve this by eliminating high-fat and high-calorie oils from the cooking process.
- Instead of utilizing numerous cups, one may get the same outcomes by using just one tablespoon of frying oil.
Essential Points to Keep in Mind before Buying Air Fryers:
Work mechanism of Air Fryers: Air fryers work on a very simple technique. There is a heating element and a fan above it. Air fryers cook food with hot air rather than vast quantities of oil. The temperature of the heating element can be controlled. Air fryers allow you to cook various kinds of food at different temperatures, giving tastier flavours. Power Usage: The air fryer’s power usage ranges between 1400W to 2000W. All heat is present in a small chamber which translates to faster and even cooking with very less oil usage. Avoid deep frying for a healthier life. Air fryers do faster preheating, baking, and roasting than microwaves and OTG. Utility: You can bake, roast, toast, grill, reheat and use rotisserie in air fryers. But you can’t cook curry dishes in them. Tip: Wrap your marinated dish with Aluminum foil to prevent spillage. Size: Large families and people who love to cook should buy at least a 5L air fryer. Small air fryers are good for baking, toasting, and reheating, and they are only sufficient for smaller families, say two or three-member families. Extended Warranty: All air fryers come with a one or two years comprehensive warranty. What if your air fryer gets damaged after that? Ensure you buy an extended warranty to protect your air fryer from day one. We highly recommend Go Warranty as it is the best. Buy it from anywhere. Negotiate it well but do protect your air fryer. |
