AIR FRYER COOKING TIPS
• Most prepared foods do not need to be tossed in oil before air frying. Most already
contain oil and other ingredients that enhance browning and crispiness. (Frozen
appetizers and hors d'oeuvres air fry very well.)
• Toss foods you are preparing from scratch, such as french fries, with a little oil in a
separate bowl to improve browning and crispiness.
• When making french fries using fresh potatoes, ensure they are completely dry before
cooking in the air fryer. Even the smallest droplets of moisture will prevent them from
getting crispy.
• When air frying battered food, stick to thick, pasty batters. Thin batters, such as the
batters used to make tempura, will run and not set quickly enough as they would do in
a deep fryer.
• If using multiple wire racks, carefully switch rack positions halfway through the
cooking cycle to ensure the most even results. For dehydrating, switch rack positions
from top to bottom periodically during dehydrating time.
• The air fryer is great for reheating food. To reheat your food, set the temperature to
300°F for up to 10 minutes.
• Follow food safety guidelines for doneness. Because food sizes can vary, do not rely
on recipe timing only when cooking food. Check foods for doneness against current
safety guidelines before serving.
