Air Fryers have become one of the most popular kitchen appliances in recent years. The ability to cook healthier versions of your favourite fried foods has been a game-changer for many households. Typically, an Air Fryer comes with a basket that allows the air to circulate and cook food evenly. However, this can often make it difficult to check on your food without disrupting the cooking process. This is where the glass Air Fryer comes in.
The glass Air Fryer, made by Dongguan Shaohong Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., is like any other Air Fryer but with a unique glass basket that allows you to keep an eye on your food as it cooks. This is particularly useful when cooking delicate foods, such as fish or vegetables, that require more precise cooking times. The glass basket also adds a touch of elegance to the overall design of the Air Fryer, making it look more high-end than the traditional plastic basket.
To put this glass Air Fryer to the test, I decided to make a few of my favourite Air Fryer recipes and see how they turned out compared to my regular Air Fryer. Here are my findings.
First up was chicken wings. I cooked them at 390°F for 25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. The glass Air Fryer cooked the wings evenly and they turned out crispy and delicious. As for the regular Air Fryer, the wings were also cooked well but I found that I had to open the basket multiple times to check on them, which disrupted the cooking process.
Next, I decided to cook fries. I cut up some potatoes and cooked them at 400°F for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. Once again, the glass Air Fryer cooked the fries evenly and they turned out crispy and golden brown. The regular Air Fryer also did a good job, but I found that the fries in the middle of the basket were slightly undercooked.
For my final test, I decided to cook a salmon fillet. I cooked it at 380°F for 12 minutes, and the glass Air Fryer cooked the salmon perfectly. It was moist and flaky, and the glass basket allowed me to see when it was done without having to open the basket multiple times. The regular Air Fryer also cooked the salmon well, but I found that it was slightly overcooked and the skin was not as crispy.
Overall, I was impressed with the glass Air Fryer. It cooked food evenly and the glass basket allowed me to keep an eye on my food without disrupting the cooking process. The design of the Air Fryer was also sleek and elegant, and it was a great addition to my kitchen. However, the price point is slightly higher than traditional Air Fryers, so it may not be for everyone.
In conclusion, if you're someone who likes to cook delicate foods or wants to keep an eye on your food as it cooks, then the glass Air Fryer is definitely worth considering. It offers a unique cooking experience and the end result is deliciously cooked food.
