the air frier is such a marketing genius, they used an established technology, the convection oven, packed it small and brand it as healthy, now everyone has it
It’s more like adding a leaf blower to it, but yeah it’s just a glorified convection oven.
Lots of modern ovens come with the feature, but you can’t just air fry in any old convection oven.
I got one not because it’s healthy but because it’s literally a small oven for when I don’t want to heat the whole big oven
Im seriously considering getting rid of my oven and replacing it with an air fryer and portable induction hotplates.
Only problem is that a frozen pizza wont fit in an air fryer and thats like the only thing I actually use the over for!
Stupid question but why do you like need to get rid of your oven specifically? Can’t you just not use it? It’s already basically built into the counter space for most residences.
If you don’t do Thanksgiving then this is honestly viable. Literally the only reason my big ass of an exists at this point is for a turkey because even though I got one of the probably largest countertop air fryers I could find where I can fit whole roasted chickens and do baking and other stuff it won’t fit a whole ass turkey and I don’t think I would want one that could that would be just a little bit too much counter space
I use my air fryer basically for fries and thats it. I have a convection oven that’s like 1/3/ 2/3 though that is fuckin KILLER for this reason. It saves on energy only heating the top, The top bit preheats in a couple minutes max, and it fits basically everything except maybe a cake or something. Since my breakup ive had to pull out the divider one time.
I like them cause they cook faster and crisp better than convection ovens. A leaf blower, like the other person said.
Air fryer, automatic pressure cooker, and electric smoker: three appliances that every home cook should own to step up their meal game. Your food will taste so much better.
(I mean you haven’t lived until you’ve had ribs that were smoked for 2 hours, stuck in the instant pot for 20 minutes, and then finished off in the broiler or on the grill. No other method tops this technique. Or birria that was pressure cooked instead of the traditional stove method. And now I want ribs and tacos birrias.)
Ew, corpse eating. When will people realise that these disgusting religious practices aren’t okay to talk about in public? Nobody likes your corpse eating cult.
Do you ever clean your air fryer?
God, I hope so. Imagine all of Beethoven’s finger gunk sticking to those keys.
I knew a keyboard player a while back that didn’t like cleaning his keys, they got slick from finger oil with use and he didn’t like the little bit of extra friction they had when they were clean.
Me when I’m in the sun for 30 seconds
I love my oven, has convection functions, a lot of things. Couldn’t afford it now, glad I bought it when I could!
