BELLA PRO SERIES 6QTS TOUCHSCREEN AIR FRYER | BEL-90131

Product Description

An air fryer is a small countertop covection oven designed to simulate deep frying  without submerging the food in oil. A fan circulates hot air at high speed, producing a crisp layer via browning reactions such as the maillard reaction. Some product reviewers find that regular convection ovens or convection toaster oven  produce better results, or say that air frying is essentially the same as convection baking

touchscreen Air fryer circulate hot air to cook food that would otherwise be submerged in oil. The air fryer’s cooking chamber radiates heat from a heating element  near the food, and a fan circulates hot air.

The original Philips Airfryer used radiant heat from a heating element just above the food and convection heat from a strong air stream flowing upwards through the open bottom of the food chamber, delivering heat from all sides, with a small volume of hot air forced to pass from the heater surface and over the food, with no idle air circulating as in a convection oven. A shaped guide directs the airflow over the bottom of the food. The technique was patented as Rapid Air technology.

Traditional frying methods induce the Maillard effect at temperatures of 140 to 165 °C (284 to 329 °F) by completely submerging foods in hot oil, well above the boiling point of water. The air fryer works by coating the food in a thin layer of oil and circulating air at up to 200 °C (392 °F) to apply sufficient heat to cause the reaction.

Most air fryers have temperature and timer adjustments that allow more precise cooking. Food is typically cooked in a basket that sits on a drip tray. The basket must be periodically agitated, either manually or by the fryer mechanism. Convection ovens and air fryers are similar in the way they cook food, but air fryers are generally smaller and give off less heat
