An air fryer is becoming a convenient home appliance that is widely used. Perfetto will help you understand why cooking with an air fryer is becoming a trend in home cooking.

How does an air fryer work?

The operating mechanism of an air fryer is applying high-temperature technology to emit heat and combine with a fan to cook food. Instead of soaking the food in hot oil, as in traditional frying methods, the air fryer uses an oven where a hot air stream is blown through and cooks the food. The fan is used to distribute the heat evenly and ensure that the food is cooked completely. 

Some types of modern air fryers also use advanced technologies, including infrared lights to enhance cooking efficiency, or non-stick materials to minimize dirt sticking to the bottom of the pot. However, the operating method of air fryers still uses a hot air stream to cook food.

Why should you choose an air fryer?

With oil-free cooking technology, the air fryer helps save the amount of oil used in the cooking process and reducing the number of fats in the meal. The air fryer allows you to cook more quickly and conveniently. You only need to prepare the food and put it in the chamber, then press the button to start the cooking program. The air fryer also helps to cook crispy and delicious fried dishes while still retaining the original nutrients.

However, cooking with an air fryer can sometimes make the food dry due to a lack of oil during the cooking process. If necessary, you should apply a little oil to help the dish not become too oily but still not dry after cooking. In fact, the air fryer shouldn’t apply for several foods such as fried dough, fried meat, or cheese because they need a uniform temperature throughout the surface to absorb oil to get crispy and delicious taste. The cost is also higher, but in return, you will have a long-term investment for your health. 

Comparison between an air fryer and traditional methods

Comparison with traditional frying methods:

Cooking with an air fryer saves oil and reduces the amount of fat in the diet. Meanwhile, the traditional frying method often uses a lot of oil, which bring potential health hazards.

Comparison with traditional baking:

Comparing to the traditional baking, the air fryers reduce dryness, and maintain the moisture of the food. In contrast, baking food often results in difficulty of maintaining the moisture and produces carcinogenic substances such as benzopyrene.



In summary, an air fryer has many benefits over other cooking methods, such as reducing significant amount of fat, maintaining the moisture of the food, and preserving the natural flavor of the food. Even though air fryers have higher costs, it still worth as a long-term investment for users.
