How to properly clean the air fryer?
With the air fryer there are many food options that can be prepared. Mostly they involve a bit of grease with an exceptional finish in a few minutes. Its use is quite simple and quick to apply and learn.
However, cleaning is usually another story. Although it may not seem like it, it is necessary to have a rigorous and constant cleaning method that, although it should not make you lose sleep, should not be overlooked.
This is because dirt can accumulate in places where you least expect it to go. Which, over time, will cause the computer to stop working.
For this reason, in the following article, I will leave you with a list of recommendations and important points to consider so that you can improve your cleaning method, prevent food from tasting bad, and extend the life of your equipment. Let's start.
Cleaning products
Before starting the cleaning you should get some cleaning products to make it really effective. Among them are: soap, white vinegar, bicarbonate of soda.
As tools or utensils, you should have: kitchen paper, strainer, sponge, soft bristle brush, cloth, container to store excess oil or a preferably non-stick spatula.
Consider that, whether they are made of plastic or non-stick material, you should use wooden or rubber paddles so as not to scratch the surface of the equipment.
Steps to follow for a good cleaning
If you want to leave your deep fryer clean as gold containers, these are the steps you must follow to do it correctly:
Preparations
One of the first steps is to unplug the computer and make sure it is completely cool.
In addition, you should put some water to boil and wait for it to cool down a bit.
Cleaning
At that point, take the strainer and cover the mouth of the tray. With the strainer you will prevent the remaining pieces of toasted food from mixing with the oil to be reused.
Drain the oil into the container provided. If you notice that it has a cloudy appearance or has a bad odor, it is Better to discard it.
Now, in a container place a little hot water and a little white vinegar.
Remove the metal basket from the equipment and take it to the hot water with vinegar. Soak for a few minutes and use soap to finish removing the dirt.
Allow time and while the basket is going up, with a brush remove what has remained on the walls inside the machine. Emphasize the corners.
When you're done, use kitchen paper to remove the dirt you've removed.
Then, I fill the basket up to the line with water and mix with a little soap.
Place the basket inside the air fryer and turn it on to bring the water to a boil. Leave like this for a few minutes. This process will be the one that frees the entire surface of the tray from the remaining food.
When the time is up, turn off the air fryer, unplug, and let the water cool down.
When the water cools, pass it through the strainer and clean with kitchen paper.
As a second rinse, in hot water and soap, dip the toothbrush and rub again.
In the areas where there are traces of fat, place a little baking soda and rub with strong and energetic movements.
To clean the outside use the cloth slightly moistened with water and dry with the help of a cloth.
When you have cleaned all the implements, put everything to dry and place it in its place.
How often should the fryer be cleaned?
Ideally, do a deep clean every time you use it. But if the use is very frequent, you should use a cloth to clean between meals and deep clean weekly.
As you will see, it is not so difficult to achieve the desired goal, by completely eliminating the air fryer harrow. In this way, you can use it with confidence and without worrying about food remains.
