Air Frying Tips
• Almost any food you cook in the oven can be air fried.
• Foods cook best and most evenly when they are of similar size and thickness.
Smaller pieces of food require less cooking time than larger items.
• Smaller pieces of food may be cooked at higher temperatures than larger items
because they generally require less time to cook.
• For best results in the shortest amount of time, air fry food in single layers.
• Most prepared foods do not need to be tossed in oil before air frying. Most
already contain oil and other ingredients that enhance browning and crispiness.
• Frozen appetizers and hors d’oeuvres air fry very well.
• Toss or flip foods halfway through the cooking cycle to ensure the most even
results.
• Toss foods you are preparing from scratch, such as French fries, with oil, in a
separate bowl, to improve browning and crispiness. Fresh foods do not contain
the same oils, fats, and other ingredients that prepared foods contain, which
promote browning and crispiness.
• When making French fries using fresh potatoes, ensure they are completely dry
before cooking. Even the smallest droplets of moisture will prevent them from
getting crispy.
• When air frying battered food, stick to thick, pasty batters. Thin batters, such
as the batters used to make tempura, will run and not set fast enough like they
do in a deep fryer.
• Coating battered foods in panko breadcrumbs or puffed rice, and then spraying
them with oil, can help create crispy, healthier versions of your favorite fried
foods.
• Cook chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
• The air fryer lid is great for reheating food using the Reheat function. To reheat
your food, we recommend using the Reheat function. Use a thermometer to
ensure food reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, the recommended food-
safe temperature for reheating food.
• Do not use any paper or plastic plates/containers in the cooking vessel.
• Aluminum foil and parchment paper can be used to line the bottom of the frying
basket if necessary.
• It is not recommended to use any of the fryer lid’s tools for anything other than
their intended use with the air fryer as this may damage the components.
• Do not use the silicone mat inside the cooking vessel.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Do not wash the air fryer lid in the dishwasher. Always wash the frying basket
thoroughly after every use.
1. When the air fryer lid is unplugged and completely cool, gently wipe down the
glass with a damp cloth or paper towel. Never immerse the air fryer lid or its
plug in water or any other liquid. The air fryer lid is NOT dishwasher safe.
2. Wash all accessories with a sponge and warm, soapy water. The frying basket
may be washed with a bristle brush. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents
or scouring pads. All accessories are dishwasher safe but hand washing is
recommended.
3. Dry thoroughly and store in a cool, dry place.
