Manufacturers of household kitchen appliances do not get tired of making the housewives happy with practical functional devices that greatly facilitate home life. Such devices include aerogril - a kitchen gadget consisting of a round glass bulb, a volumetric cover, in which a heating element with a fan is built in. The principle of operation of this device is obvious: the heating element creates the temperature necessary for cooking, and the fan provides the products located on the pan for aerogrill, a uniform blowing. This unit has many functions , with its help you can not only cook juicy roasted meat, but also stew foods, bake, cook and even sterilize.
However, often housewives who do not have enough experience in using aerogrill make it difficult to prepare some dishes: the bottom products are damp, the cooking time increases. Sometimes the reason is incorrectly selected dishes for aerogrill, so this issue should be approached carefully.
Choose the dishes correctly
Of course, aerogril - this is not a microwave oven, so the requirements for dishes are not so tough. Since in most models the maximum temperature can reach 280 degrees, the material from which the dishes are made must be heat-resistant, that is, plastic and wood do not fit. From what kind of dishes you will use for cooking in aerogrill, the taste of the dish also depends. The same product, cooked in different dishes, will have differences in taste. For example, potatoes in a glass container with thin walls will turn roast, with a crust, and in a clay pot - fragrant, "languished".
One of the main criteria in the choice of dishes is the thickness of its walls. The thinner they are, the faster and more uniformly the food is prepared. Thus, thick-walled glass containers for microwave ovens for aerogrill are not suitable, since cooking food in them takes a lot of time. But heat-resistant and thin glass (even ordinary cans!) Is an excellent solution. In addition, there are pots and pots of glass on sale today, so there will be no problems with the elections.
And what other dishes, besides glass, are suitable for aerogril? Any, which is made of a material with high heat-conducting properties. It can be stainless steel, aluminum, silicone.
Shape and size
Another important parameter is the volume of dishes. So, in two 250-millimeter pots you will prepare food faster than in one 500-millimeter. That's why try to get smaller capacities, even batch ones, in such quantity that could fit in the device. If there is no time limit, and the family is large, then the ideal glass bowl for the aerogrill will be ideal, but its diameter should be at least 2-3 cm less than the diameter of the bulb. The fact is that hot air, which circulates through the bulb of the aerogrill, needs at least some free space, otherwise the food will be prepared unevenly.
Pleasant trifles
Modern models of aerogrills are usually equipped with various functional accessories. Thanks to inserts for quick frying, enlarging rings, rosters, skewers, grills, stands and stylists for aerogrill, your dishes will not only taste good, but also appetizing looking.
Do not forget about such an important accessory, as forceps. This is not only convenient, but also safe, since the bulb of the aerogrill is very hot during operation, and the forceps will save you from burns. In addition, the use of forceps is more hygienic.
