Advantages and disadvantages of air fryer

First, advantages:
1. Of course, the biggest advantage is fuel economy and health. Food containing oil itself, such as chicken leg, streaky pork, etc., can be directly put into it for frying. The fat content of fried food can be reduced by more than 70%. For foods without oil, such as tofu and flammulina velutipes, just brush a layer of oil on the surface.

2. The cooking efficiency of air fryers is very high. The air frying pan does not need to be preheated like the oven, because it is a closed small space, and the heating speed is fast. Just put the food in it and set the time for frying.

3. Simple operation. The air frying pan can be said to be a necessary artifact for deep fried food lovers in the kitchen. You don't need to test the oil temperature or look at the heat. You can intelligently control the temperature and throw food in. Novice can also make delicious fried chicken!

4. Operation safety. When frying food, I often get scalded due to oil splashing. The air frying pan is closed, so you don't have to worry about oil spilling.

5. It is small and convenient to move. The volume of the air fryer is much smaller than that of the oven. It is about the same as an electric rice cooker. It can be moved at any time and does not occupy much space. Of course, if you buy them, they will take up space no matter how small they are.

Again, disadvantages:
1. The air fryer uses air instead of oil to simulate the effect of frying. It can not completely achieve the effect of frying in the oil fryer. The fried food is between baking and frying, and will be a little dry.

2. Small volume is the advantage and disadvantage of air fryer. Small size leads to limited food for each frying. If the food is stuffed too full, the food is easy to be heated unevenly, which is not only bad in taste, but also half cooked. 3. High power, relatively expensive. The general power of the air fryers sold on the market now is between 800w and 1500w, and it takes about 0.2 kilowatt to fry chicken wings. Because of its small size, there are not many chicken wings in a pot, so it costs more electricity.
