Advantages and potential risks of Toshiba air fryer

Compared with the traditional frying pan that uses animal and vegetable oils to fry food, the Toshiba air fryer can greatly reduce the oil content in food, and will not produce harmful soot like traditional frying; Compared to an oven, it can also reduce cooking and waiting time, and even set the cooking time and temperature in advance, eliminating the need for people to stay in front of it. The operation is simple and safe, making it more friendly for "kitchen professionals".

However, the cooking temperature of the air frying pan is basically the same as that of ordinary fried food, even slightly higher. When frying food, the oil temperature is about 160 ℃ to 180 ℃, while the temperature range of an air frying pan is usually 120 ℃ to 200 ℃. The specific temperature depends on the ingredients used and the dishes made.

Therefore, like deep frying, even if the air fryer is used, nutrients such as vitamin B in food will be destroyed and lost under high temperatures, and substances such as protein in food may also produce heterocyclic amines and Benzopyrene, which may induce canceration of human cells, reduce nutritional value, and bring certain health risks.

From this, it can be seen that in daily life, we should still consume more food made by steaming, boiling, and other methods. Steaming can greatly preserve the nutritional value of food, avoid the generation of harmful substances, and is relatively healthier.

As for the air frying pan, friends who want to eat fried food but are afraid of gaining weight and being unhealthy can occasionally use it to satisfy their cravings, but they should eat it in moderation.

Moreover, when buying air fryers, we must choose brands with quality assurance and products certified by the State 3C to minimize potential safety hazards and ensure safety.
