Air fryer and oven have their own advantages and disadvantages. Their choice depends on your love of food. Generally speaking, the air fryer is simple to operate and has few functions, which can basically meet the needs of ordinary families. The oven is more powerful and can further meet the processing needs of food.
I bought an air fryer first, and then an electric oven. Now we basically use an electric oven instead of an air fryer.
Take a concrete look at the difference between the two:
1, heating mode is different. The electric oven is heated by the heat radiation of the electric heating tube; The air fryer is heated by the combination of thermal radiation and rapid air circulation.
2. From the perspective of energy conservation. Air fryer has low power, high efficiency and relatively energy saving; The electric oven consumes a lot of energy, so it consumes a lot of electricity.
3. From the point of view of pollution and neatness. Air fryer has less oil smoke, food is not easy to burn and easy to clean; The electric oven has a large oil fume, so it is not easy to clean the barbecue food with a range hood.
4. From the convenience of use. The air fryer is small in size, convenient to move and flexible to use. The oven is bulky, heavy and basically fixed, which is not as convenient and flexible as the air fryer.
5. judging from the taste of food. The air fryer is small in size, relatively closed, food is not easy to lose too much water, and it uses less oil and has strong water locking ability. The oven can quickly dehydrate food and make it taste dry.
6. From a functional point of view. Although air blasting has many advantages, due to the small space, the number of single processing is small. The air fryer can't load plates, for example, the whole chicken can't be processed, while the traditional electric oven can easily do it. There are many recipes processed in the oven, such as cheesecake, bread and pudding, which can only be baked in the oven.
