COOKING TIPS

Preheat the air fryer for 3 minutes before cooking. While not necessary,
preheating the unit will cook foods faster and promote crisp results. If the
unit is cold, add a few minutes to your expected cooking time. CAUTION: Be
careful when adding food after preheating as the inside of the 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. Most foods air fry best between 325°F and
400°F. For gentler cooking and reheating, use a lower temperature to avoid
overcooking.
