What's an airfryer?
An airfryer is a fryer that works with hot air. You need little to no oil, so you can fry healthier with a crispy result. In addition to fries and snacks, you can also cook vegetables and meat, and bake pies in the airfryer. In this article, we'll explain how an airfyer works and discuss the benefits with you.
This is how an airfryer works
An airfryer heats up the air up to a temperature of about 200°C. The hot air circulates in the pan constantly. Fries will get cooked and have a crispy crust on all sides. You can set the temperature and cooking time via the control panel. With some airfryers, you can choose a specific program. These options differ per brand and airfryer type. Do you want ease of use? Go for an airfryer with cooking aid. That way, you can easily control the airfryer remotely.
The benefits of an airfryer
The most important advantage is that you don't need oil to prepare your snacks. This makes the fries and snacks from an airfryer less greasy and healthier. In addition to frying snacks, you can also grill drumsticks or vegetables, and you can even bake muffins. You can cook fast with hot air, and while it's busy, you won't have issues with frying fumes. An airfyer is also safe to use, because there isn't any oil that can splash from the fryer. Without caked-on frying oil, the removable inner pan is easy to clean.
