It doesn’t take half an hour to pre heat, it doesn’t heat up the whole house, and I’m not sending my power bill through the roof every time I want to make a meal for one person lol
Well yeah but it heats up a lot faster using a lot less energy
You mean like a… Convection oven!!!
Most people don’t even know how to use their microwave properly. You really think they know how to use their convection oven properly? It’s not WHAT it does, it’s that an air fryer is usually simple and has shit like “turn dial here to cook a chicken”.
People like it because they don’t know what they’re doing and it does it for them.
And it moves way more air than a normal oven, thus removing water vapor faster. This water vapor that partly steams the food, resulting in moisture saturated air that in turn prevents more moisture from escaping, is the main difference between a frying pan and an oven. A deep fryer replaces the water with oil, an air fryer just extracts the water quicker. Both prevent the food from cooking in water or steam, resulting in a crispy texture.
I was very surprised that it cooked such moist chicken breasts without drying them out, I think you possibly just explained why that is! 😅
Didn’t they say it does stuff out quicker?
Hold on let me read it again for ya -
This water vapor that partly steams the food, resulting in moisture saturated air that in turn prevents more moisture from escaping
They’re not the one with reading comprehension problems. OP said the air fryer removes that moist air more quickly, which would dry it out faster.
Dude.
The first sentence:
it moves way more air than a normal oven, thus removing water vapor faster.
Says that the sentence you quoted applies less with an air fryer than a conventional oven.
This water vapor that partly steams the food [is removed more slowly in a conventional oven], resulting in moisture saturated air that in turn prevents more moisture from escaping
Everyone misquoting the guy telling you that you read the sentence wrong, and ignoring that you already said the breasts came out juicier in an air fryer. (they do)
They have the reading comprehension of baboons
Oven with a fan. Checkmate fanboys.
One might call it a convection oven.
If one doesn’t realize you can trick Americans into buying anything that implies frying.
