How do they work?
.
They work in a similar way to an oven, with the addition that they circulate the air very quickly in a small space so that they get that delicious crispy touch.
.
You can modify temperature and time to your liking manually. In some models you have pre-configured programs and the pause option to be able to 'shake' or turn so that they cook evenly and when finished it notifies you audibly.
.
In addition, some exclusive models have a grill or grid to cook at 2 heights and save even more time and electricity by cooking two dishes at the same time, multiplying the capacity of your fryer.
.
What can I cook?
.
It doesn't just fry, it also roasts, bakes and toasts at the push of a button. Therefore, you can cook fried foods such as chips, croquettes or breaded meat and fish. Also rolls or bagels from scratch or put a pre-made bread to toast. More prepared dishes such as gratin stuffed mushrooms or endives with ham and béchamel to the simplest, but just as delicious as chicken wings, roast potatoes or hard-boiled or boiled eggs. You can even cook desserts like cheesecake, milk French toast.
.
You can season the food, the only thing we recommend is that if you like it very seasoned, use baking paper, silver or similar to avoid losing the seasoning through the perforated basket in the bucket. It is also advisable to use paper in the case of working with cheese, since if it adheres to the base it can reduce the non-stick capacity. Of course, keep in mind that this reduces the flow of air inside, reducing its cooking performance.
.
You can cook a wide variety of vegetables or pasta in the air fryer, as long as the preparation does not require adding water. Another healthy and equally fast option for these preparations is to cook the preparations that require water with the steamer.
.
You just have to be careful when cooking foods with liquid dough since it must be previously frozen or use molds. These can be made of glass, ceramic, metal or silicone. However, you cannot cook liquids such as soups, creams, broths or in general any preparation that needs to boil. For that you have the soup and smoothie maker or the multifunction kitchen robot.
.
But do they use oil or not?
.
Yes, air fryers can and often should use oil, but 85% less than regular frying in a pot or pan. They should be used when cooking raw chicken or potatoes, but it is not necessary when we want to cook processed or frozen foods such as pizza or nuggets.
.
This oil can be sprayed or spread on the rack to prevent food from sticking or on the food itself to brown evenly. You can do this with a kitchen spray or brush.
.
Therefore, it is healthier because it uses less fat by not having the need to immerse the food in hot oil, but it is also healthier than a conventional oven because the excess fat will drain to the bottom and you will not eat it.
.
Do they come with recipes?
.
Yeah! You can download the recipe book in PDF from the QR code that you will find in the instructions. Do not forget to renew it because we are adding new recipes. Also, follow us on social media for more recipes and ideas. including those of the chef David de Jorge, better known as Robin Food
.
What capacity should I buy?
.
A "shortcut" to know how many approximate servings you can make in a deep fryer is to count between 1 and 2 servings per liter of capacity. Therefore, knowing for the number of people that you are going to cook, you can know what capacity you need.
.
Regarding the kitchen space, the Jocca models have a compact design to offer the maximum capacity while occupying the minimum space. Even so, keep in mind that, with more capacity, it is inevitable that it will take up a little more space in the kitchen. But in general, they are very easy to store or to find fixed space for them.
.
You have the measurements and capacity in the description of each model to facilitate the shopping experience.
.
Are they safe?
.
Completely, think that with the format of the fryers without oil you avoid dangerous splashes or the famous blow of hot air in the face when opening the oven door, you don't even need protective gloves because they have a cool touch handle and they are also free of BPA, PFOA and have auto shut off.
.
What should be its maintenance?
.
In the instructions you will have the maintenance and cleaning recommendations for each model. The most important thing to keep in mind is that the baskets are covered with non-stick material that prevents food from becoming embedded, therefore, it is more than enough to clean with a little water, mild soap and a cloth.
.
And, because we can all be careless, don't worry, we have spare parts for all models for any need.
.
What guarantee do they have?
.
It has a 3-year warranty. We complete the information here
