Everybody knows by now that air fryers have revolutionized home cooking.
This nifty kitchen appliance offers a healthier alternative to traditional deep frying methods by using hot air circulation to cook food. Since the air fryer requires a fraction of the oil or sometimes none at all, that also means lower fat intake and fewer calories. The textures of the foods are still crispy just like when food is deep-fried. Everybody also knows how expensive cooking oil is these days. At my local grocery store, a small bottle of canola oil that used to cost 98 cents sells for almost $2 these days.
A healthier cooking option is not the only advantage or benefit of using an air fryer. There are several
- Air fryers cook food faster and are are more energy-efficient.
Air fryers cook a wide variety of foods. Not just traditionally fried items like French fries, chicken wings, but also baked goods. The appliances usually come withs accessories like baking pans and racks, etc.
Air fryers are not only easy to use but easy to clean because of the non-stick coatings on the cooking basket and accessories. Many parts are dishwasher-safe.
Air fryers are super safe! No worries about hazards, such as hot oil splattering and the risk of burns from handling hot oil.
Air fryers have precise temperature control and even heat distribution. When cooking foods don't need to be constant monitored and the results are often consistent.
Two things are on my gift wish list for the holiday season. One is a rice cooker and the other is an air fryer.
