Re: [CnD] Information I got about the most accessible air fryer.
There is another thing to consider, though it has nothing to do with accessibility. Some of the combination toaster oven, convection oven, and air fryer units have very limited space for air frying, even though they can roast or bake something quite large. The Cuisinart is like this. You can only air fry things that are thin, like chicken wings or fries, but you can't air fry pieces of chicken with the bone in because you can only use the top rack for air frying, and these foods would hit the top of the oven. So even though this thing has a high capacity for baking and using the convection feature, the air frying space is quite limited. Which is sort of too bad, because this and similar units use knobs. Not those inaccessible dials, but actual old school knobs. Label friendly, old fashioned knobs! -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of Johna Gravitt via Cookinginthedark Sent: Tuesday, July 7, 2020 6:55 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: Johna Gravitt Subject: Re: [CnD] Information I got about the most accessible air fryer.

Here is information that was sent about different air fryers. So much to choose from and to figure out which one would be the best and most accessible! Jennifer, Here some of the information listed on Amazon for the Emeril Lagasse Power Air Fryer Oven 360: * Emerald 9-in-1 air fryer – replace your countertop convection oven! 5 all-over heating elements mimic a commercial-quality oven for perfect, even cooking. Most convection ovens only have 3. 12 pre-set cooking functions let you choose what you want to cook and how: custom toaster oven setting for up to 6 slices of bread, roast a whole turkey, bake desserts, air fry fried chicken, slow cooking up to 10 hours, roast vegetables, dehydrate jerky and fruit, bake crisp-crust pizza & more. * Better than ordinary convection ovens - 360° quick cook technology and five super powerful heating elements mean your meals cook evenly on all sides in a whirlwind of super-heated air for crispy, delicious flavors. No added fats, oils, or unhealthy grease required. Get chef-quality results in one compact, 1500-watt countertop oven - 40% faster than regular ovens. * Extra versatile – LCD digital display with 12 cooking functions: air fry, bake, rotisserie, dehydrate, toast, reheat, roast, broil, bagel, pizza, slow cook, and Warm/ reheat. Using an air fryer over a traditional deep fryer can help reduce the number of unhealthy CALORIES you consume by up to 70% while still letting you enjoy your favorite foods. The machine has buttons and knobs that control its functions-the LCD digital display shows the settings. I looked on Amazon and Walmart for additional air fryers. Here are some options that may fit your criteria. I have listed the brand, model, size, price, and some of the information from the listing. I would highly recommend you verify with the company if the machine has tactile buttons; not all of the descriptions for the air fryers specifically state if the machines had buttons. I used the pictures provided and the air fryers in the pictures appear to have raised buttons but I could be incorrect. Option 1: PowerXL Vortex Air Fryer Plus 5-Quart, $79.99 on Walmart *6-in-1 Multi-Use Design: Air Fryer, Dehydrator, Pizza Oven, Baking Oven, Roaster, Reheat *Up to 70% Fewer Calories from Fat vs. Deep Frying *Easy-to-Use Panel with 10 One-Touch Pre-Set Functions *Precise Temperature Control *Even Cooking ?
