Getting Started
- Prevent Sticking: When using butter directly in the air fryer, ensure the basket is adequately greased or lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking, especially with delicate items.
- Even Coating: For crispy, flavorful results, toss ingredients thoroughly with melted butter and seasonings before air frying. This ensures even browning and prevents dry spots.
- Temperature Control: Butter can brown quickly. For recipes where you want rich flavor without burning, use a slightly lower temperature (e.g., 350°F / 175°C) and check frequently, especially with small items.
- Cross-Contamination: Always clean your air fryer thoroughly if it has been used for gluten-containing foods, or dedicate a separate liner/basket for gluten-free cooking to prevent cross-contamination.
