What is the principle of air fryer?

When the air fryer is actually cooking, the interface is also fried. In fact, frying is to use hot oil to quickly lose moisture on the surface of food in a short time after the oil is heated, so as to achieve a crisp and tender taste. In this case, the oil content in fried food is relatively high, and these oils are not particularly healthy. The principle of air fryer is to cook food by using relevant hot air instead of hot oil. Specifically, the air is fully heated by the top device, and then the circulating heat flow is formed by the built-in fan, so that the food can contact in all directions and quickly take away all the water vapor, so that the food can reach a cooking taste.

We must do a good job in processing this food between frying and cooking. Although air fryer cooks food faster than oven, it certainly takes longer than frying.
