1. Is the tin foil of the air fryer wrapped?
This mainly depends on the ingredients and personal taste.
Take lamb chops as an example. In order to ensure that the thick meat of lamb chops can be cooked thoroughly, we need to ensure a closed space and hot air circulation, so we need to wrap the lamb chops with tin foil at this time.
But some people like to eat barbecue outside. What shall we do? Then we need to wrap the lamb chops and bake them for 50 minutes, and then expose the top layer. Just spread a layer of tin foil on the bottom and bake for 20 minutes, so that the lamb chops are cooked and the outer layer is burnt.
Therefore, other ingredients such as chicken wings are not very thick, chicken is easier to cook, and the outer layer of chicken skin provides gum and grease, which is not easy to turn into dry wood, so you can lay a layer at the bottom;
There is no need to wrap the roast chicken. The whole chicken is rich in fat. You can think of a thick layer of oil on the surface of chicken soup after each boiling.
In short:
Tin-coated baking: it is easier to ripen, with better moisture retention and tenderness.
No tin foil baking: fragrant, good color, convenient to brush sauce halfway.
Second, must the air fryer use tin foil?
Not necessarily.
The utility model can be used for baking cakes, barbecuing and cooking meat, and can also be used for processing simple vegetables. Many cakes have their own special molds, such as cupcakes. These aren't tinfoil anymore. Barbecue takes a long time.
The air fryer is heated and cooked by electric energy. Heating for a long time will inevitably lead to the concentration of hot spots, that is, food is mixed together. Moreover, the meat itself contains oil, which is easily lost during heating, and the taste will be greatly reduced. Tin foil is essential at this time. Tin foil is now made of thin aluminum, which has a high melting point and will not burn black. It has no permeability, which ensures the taste of meat well, and its oil and water will not lose a lot.
So whether the oven needs tin foil depends on the food you handle.
