Air fryer conquered hearts and it was not for nothing
The product's technology is based on the use of circulating hot air to cook food, providing a crispy, golden texture, all without relying on a large amount of oil.
The high-velocity hot air stream surrounds the food, ensuring even cooking on all sides.
The result, according to manufacturers, manifests itself in a crispy and golden surface, comparable to the texture of fried recipes, but without a significant amount of fat.
According to Thaisy Vieira, nutritionist at Unimed Grande Florianópolis, using the air fryer stands out for eliminating the presence of harmful fats.
She observes that the mechanism employed by the device is similar to that of a convection oven, contributing to a healthier profile in the food preparation.
According to the nutritionist, the use of this device brings advantages that go beyond the agility in the preparation time of recipes, reflecting positively on health.
The professional also points out that some of the earnings provided include:
Less fat and calories: the air fryer substantially reduces the need for oil, helping to reduce fat and calories. There is a significant drop, around 90%, in the presence of the acrylamide substance — a component that has neurotoxic and carcinogenic potential. This reduction is observed when compared with the traditional oil frying method;
Minimization of harmful compounds: the technology used in the air fryer results in less presence of harmful elements, compared to conventional frying in oil;
Agility in preparation: the practicality of this approach translates into a noticeably shorter prep time.
Is it worth it or not to have an oil-free fryer at home? Your health thanks you!
