Kitchen counter spaces across the nation were being filled with incredible gadgets this year and the number one was our beloved Instant Pot. Now, Instant Pot introduced its new buddy Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer Oven to share some cooking time. There are plenty of other brands cornering the air fryer market. Instant Pot took its time to see the true needs of their consumers to develop one that was just right.
So, what is this Instant Pot Air Fryer? It features an advanced microprocessor and 7-preset Smart Programs. With 1500 Watts of power, you will be able to cook anything fresh or frozen with a perfectly golden crispy outside and tender inside. I was excited to finally get my new Instant Pot air fryer in the mail.
Emphasis on finally because I searched several Walmart stores in the New York tri-state area to purchase it with no success. I’m the type of person who likes to see products in person and have the joys of taking it home the same day. It’s the shopping therapy endorphins that really makes the shopping experience. So, after my failed attempts I finally went online and clicked the button. Note, you can not buy the Instant Vortex air fryer on Instant Pot’s official website or Amazon at the moment. Air fryers are actually small convection ovens.
They have a topside heating element and a motorized fan which rapidly circulates the hot air so food cooks evenly creating the same crispiness as in traditional fried foods. Air fryers technically don’t fry food at all. The heated air that contains fine oil droplets takes the moisture out of the foods. The result is similar characteristics as fried foods, with significantly lower levels of fat, since they remove high-fat and high-calorie oils from the typical cooking process. Air-frying triggers a chemical reaction, the Maillard Reaction , the browning color and flavoring of food, like many other cooking methods. What’s the difference between a convection oven and an air fryer? In principle, they are the same: hot air that is blown around in a chamber to create even heating.
