General Cooking Tips:

• Preheating: For best results, preheat the air fryer for 3-5 minutes at the desired cooking temperature before adding food.
• Oil Usage: While the air fryer can cook without oil, a small amount of oil (1-2 tablespoons) can enhance crispiness and flavor for some foods. Use oil sprays or toss food with oil before placing it in the basket.
• Even Cooking: Shake the basket or flip food halfway through cooking for even browning and crispiness.
• Batch Cooking: If cooking large quantities, cook in smaller batches to ensure even results.
• Doneness: Always ensure food is cooked to a safe internal temperature.
