Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes before cooking.
While not necessary, preheating
the unit will cook foods faster and promote crisp results. If the unit is cold, add a few
minutes to your expected cooking time.
CAUTION:
Be careful when adding food after
preheating as the inside of the fryer will be hot.
For a crisp exterior, oil foods lightly.
Some foods, especially if fresh, benefit from
being tossed with a little oil in a separate bowl before frying.
Avoid wet batters.
Loose batters, such as those used for deep frying, do not work in
air fryers, as the batter simply slides off. Adapt such recipes to give foods a thicker
coating, preferably including breadcrumbs to help the coating adhere.
Use medium-high to high heat for most cooking.
Most foods will air fry best between
325°F and 400°F. For gentler cooking and reheating, use a lower temperature to
avoid overcooking.
Don’t overcrowd the basket.
Too much food, especially if tightly packed, can inhibit
browning and crisping. A better bet: Fry food in batches.
Shake the basket during cooking for even cooking.
A good shake is especially
beneficial for smaller items like french fries, onion rings, and chicken wings. For larger
or more fragile foods, consider gently tossing or flipping for even results.
Check on foods early.
Check foods on the earlier side of cooking time; you can always
slide the basket back in to continue cooking. If using the divider, you may need to
remove quicker cooking foods before longer cooking foods are done.
Follow food safety guidelines for doneness.
Because air fryer temperatures and food
sizes can vary, do not rely solely on recipe timing when cooking food. Check foods for
doneness against current safety guidelines before serving.
