Chances are you’ve heard about air fryers by now. They’re the increasingly popular kitchen gadget that can help you achieve a crispy deep-fried-esque texture, all without having to actually deep-fry anything. But how?
It all comes down to the Maillard reaction. Air fryers work by circulating super-hot air mixed with tiny droplets of oil. The hot air plus oil combo helps quickly crisp up whatever you’re cooking and gives it a nice golden-brown color. This reaction is why foods that are browned often taste better, and it’s one of the reasons air fryers are so useful. To really show that off, we’ve rounded up 12 recipes to show just how versatile the air fryer can be.
