An air fryer uses superheated air in the same way a convection oven works. Differing air frying from a standard oven, as conventional ovens simply heat the air, and convection ovens blow the air around with a fan. Since the air blows around food in a convection cooking is heated more evenly and cooks faster. Since not all kitchens are equipped with a convection oven, the countertop air fryer provides a great alternative.
These days, most new full-size and built-in air fryer toaster ovens come with an air fryer function, but here's a sad truth: Most people don't use the air fryer function on their ovens. Why? Because they don't know how to.
Air circulation doesn't just heat the food faster; it also accelerates all the chemical reactions that occur in cooking. The bits of butter in a pastry crust, for example, melt faster, which means they release steam more quickly, which leads to more air between layers in other words, a flakier crust. When roasting meats, the fat is rendered and the skin is browned more quickly, sealing in juices. The meat, because it cooks more quickly, stays moist, retaining its juicy flavor. The same is true of vegetables the dry environment created by the fan's air circulation means the sugars caramelize more quickly, locking in moisture and providing deep, round flavor.
Although Air Fryer Toaster Oven cooking seems like new, even though professional chefs have been using it for decades due to its speed and cooking/browning features. Today these ovens are easily available to home cooks at affordable prices.
