AIR FRYER COOKING TIPS
• Preheat the air fryer for 5 minutes before cooking. While not necessary,
preheating the unit will cook foods faster and promote crisp results. If unit
is cold, add a few minutes to your expected cooking time.
CAUTION: Be careful when adding food after preheating as inside of
fryer will be hot.
• For a crisp exterior, oil foods lightly. Some foods, especially if fresh,
benefit from being tossed with a little oil in a separate bowl before frying.
However, high-fat foods like a well marbled steak, or prepared foods
usually require no additional oil.
• Avoid wet batters. Loose batters, such as those used for deep frying, do
not work in air fryers, as the batter simply slides off. Adapt such recipes
to give foods a thicker coating, preferably including breadcrumbs to help
the coating adhere.
• Use medium-high to high heat for most cooking. Most foods will fry
best between 325˚F and 400˚F. For gentler cooking and reheating, use a
lower temperature to avoid overcooking.
• Don’t overcrowd the basket. Too much food, especially if tightly packed,
can inhibit browning and crisping. A better bet: Fry food in batches.
