Benefits Owning A Low-Fat Electric Fryer
With the health revolution firmly in place and people actively seeking new ways in which they can cook their food to promote healthy living, new technology has evolved to enable us to do so. Recent advancements in technology mean we can now fry foods without coating them in gallons of unhealthy saturated fats, which as we know leads to heart disease and blocked arteries
Some people have never heard of a low-fat electric fryer so in this article I aim to explain a little bit about them to go over the benefits of owning one.
Safety Issues
Traditionally, frying foods this was done by dropping them into hot fat, this would usually mean quite a lot of oil was needed. As we know hot oil is a prime fuel source for fires. Most fires which start in the home usually emanate from the kitchen. In the UK 20 people are killed or injured every day from kitchen fires. Low fat fryers only require a small spoonful of oil to achieve the same, if not better cooking results, hence lowering safety risks considerably.
Eradication Of Smell
Frying food can often be a smelly and messy process. Usually when you fry, the pungent odor lurks around the house some time and can often be off-putting. Low-fat electric fryers usually come with built in fans which reduce odors to a minimum. This means your kitchen stays as fresh as it was when you began cooking.
Practicality
Low-fat fryers are incredibly practical as you are able to often set the temperature and the cooking duration, put the lid down and let the food cook. Often these fryers have an inbuilt mixing arm which keeps the food turning so it cooks evenly. This allows you to get on with other task whilst your food is cooking.
Cleanliness
Many of the low-fat electric fryers which I have been lucky enough to take a look at are often able to be taken apart into separate pieces and popped into the dishwasher. This makes cleaning away after cooking is an incredibly easy task, as opposed to, say, standing at the sink with your detergent trying to scrub away oily, greasy residue. As these fryers are often self-contained units which cook with a lid on, it’s impossible for fatty spatter to get out, meaning less for you to clear up and no oil droplets for you to wipe away.
Health
As I outlined before, and you should already know, frying food with a deep fat fryer is bad for you. Some people seem to feel that deep-fried food tastes delicious but I think your heart would beg to differ! Cooking with a low-fat electric Fryer uses 100 times less oil than traditional means. This only equates to one thing, healthy eating and a healthier lifestyle. The more care you take to monitor and restrict the bad foods you eat the longer you will possibly live. It can’t be a bad thing can it?
