Top reasons tradespeople need an air fryer

Rhino Trade Insurance Tuesday, 3 January 2023

This may not be your everyday blog to help with insurance, but as we've said before, we are here to cover tradespeople in more ways than one. 

Although Christmas has been and gone, your chances of finding a quality deal on an air-fryer are high. But are they worth it? Let's take a look at what all the fuss is about.  

What is an air fryer?

If you are anything like us, you'll find plenty of air-fryer content on your Instagram, and Tik Tok feeds, but what exactly are they?

Air fryers are small appliances that generally live on your kitchen countertop. They have the ability to cook tasty food in a quick and safe manner. 

To put it simply, an air fryer is like an oven's little brother; only it has a mighty fan to make sure heat is spread all around the food whilst cooking. 

Perfect for a busy tradesperson

Working on-site all day makes you hella peckish. That's why an air fryer could come in extremely handy. They have been designed to accommodate a busy lifestyle. 

With the plethora of videos online, you can whip up a beautiful, tasty dish in a matter of minutes. It saves you money on the likes of Mcdonald's and Uber Eats.

They are cheaper than an oven.

On average, air fryers will use less power than a regular oven. Your standard air fryer will utilise anything from 1,200 to 1,800 watts of energy per hour instead of a conventional oven using a whopping 3,000 watts an hour. 

When shopping around for an air fryer, be sure to check out the wattage used per hour to make sure it makes sense if you intend to use your oven less. 

Promote healthier cooking

In a world filled with unhealthy food, we could all do with trying a few dishes that are healthy alternatives. 

As an air fryer uses steam, it needs little to no oil to make your food nice and crispy. So that's an immediate health saving in itself. 

On top of this, some air fryers claim to retain more of the nutrients and vitamins in the food cooked (as opposed to an oven), helping it contain more of the healthier elements of the dish. 

Make cooking easier

Overall, for the busy tradesman or woman, it fundamentally reduces stress in the kitchen. Because of the simplicity of the air fryer, all the leg work is done for you, and all you need to do is focus on prepping the food. 

Easily broaden your food horizon by air frying roasties, meat dishes, veggies, and paninis and even prep your bait box for the next day on-site. You'll have the apprentice drooling!
