PIZZA.BAT posted:yup. i got the cuisinart toaster oven / air fryer combo before this whole outbreak happened and it’s easily my most used appliance now besides... the fridge i guess. 100% recommend the cuisinart is incredible only thing to watch out for is it'll cook some things way hotter/faster than you'd expect. it's perfect for reheating things way faster than an oven and better than a microwave though, just gotta take it easy on the temp

People at work have been singing the praises of the air fryer. I just don’t know if I’d use it enough.

Paul MaudDib posted:Or an airfryer. Seriously top ten best ‘co purchases for me for sure. I use it all the time for basically “oven, but faster/crispier”. I heat hot dog buns and the mini naan dippers, mozzarella sticks, heat leftovers, etc. extremely versatile appliance, I seriously almost never use my microwave anymore except for hold warm and maybe liquids. I've considered getting an air fryer, but I have the Panasonic FlashXpress which is a "toaster oven" but the way it toasts isn't normal heating elements that requires warm-up first, it uses some superheated infrared bars that instantly starts baking/crisping poo poo really quick, so yeah i can heat buns, mozzarella sticks, pizza leftovers, hashbrowns, fries, etc and have poo poo come out super toasty in like <5 minutes. i'm not sure if an air fryer would do much else for me that this doesn't. i don't have room for a microwave so i havent had one in years and don't miss it, and i was able to get rid of my toaster since this toasts bread real well.

I'm honored to provide a thread title. Air fryer is great to get crispy chicken nugs and fries for the kids. I tried making cheese curds once...not so good results.

I see people talking them up like they invented a new kind of heat or something and I don't see how you can't just get the same effect from cooking something over an elevated rack in an oven. basically it's a combination of oven temps and also forcing air over the food so that the watts get delivered rapidly rather than just naturally convecting as the oven feels like it example: dip your hand in hot water, plunge your hand into hot oil and shake it around. thermal delivery matters. it's effectively a lot of watts delivered very quickly to the food

also I rent and my oven is old, non-convection and lovely, so my $99 air fryer turns something like oven fries from a 60 minute total (including preheat) process to 20 minutes start to finish with a better result

Consider portion size also, if you're cooking for yourself or two people an air fryer heats up faster and uses up less energy than even a full size convection oven On the bad side, the off brand air fryer i bought is a bitch to clean

Yeah their stuff is normally pretty expensive but if you can find it on sale it’s great. I got a sweet deal on their recent espresso machine with the built in grinder and it’s fantastic. I suck at making espressos normally but even I can make some very tasty pulls on it. Good milk frothing too.

Cornish Hens are great in our air fryer. But honestly my favorite use is just chucking a bunch of veggies, shrimp, and seasoning for a faux cajun bowl. It's fast, easy, and clean up is simpler than trying to open palm slam some shrimp and corn into a toaster oven.

priznat posted:Now you all have me looking at air fryer ovens! Breville has one that is also a dehydrator, hmmmmm I have the breville bov900bss -- it is awesome. I haven't used the dehydrate function yet but the airfry feature is great. As far as air fryers general use case, they are basically perfect for cooking frozen junk food like tater tots or cheese sticks instead of the regular oven. All the recipes where people insist you can make home made deep fried food without frying are bullshit. Getting one that is a combo toaster oven allows you to at least cook more stuff easier than the full oven. I use mine to do whole chickens and baked potatoes. You just need to monitor the food temperature because the timing is different (usually much quicker).

I have a breville toaster oven too and the convection is really good for when I don’t want to fire up the big oven which is usually always because it is old and can’t hold temperature worth a drat. If it goes I would definitely go for the air dryer/fryer one but it probably will still be good for a while.

I am the ideal candidate for buying an air fryer. My freezer fries bill is considerable. I prepare all manner of pre-fried chicken at all hours. I buy a shitload of par-fried food regularly. My wife even has one in our amazon account's saved for later list. I should own one. But I cant get past that its all going to be cooked in this loving coffermaker looking thing with a cheap plastic fry holder drip coffee filter holder thing that should have been made instead in to action figures or coat hangers. I simply do not understand this technology. Is that thing seriously just plastic? It can't be.

The basket/cooker area is metal if that helps. Everything is plastic these days where they can get away with it because cheap beats longevity.
