Tips for Using FAGOR Steaming and Air Frying Appliances

FAGOR‘s innovative steaming and air frying appliances are designed to help you create healthy and delicious meals with ease. To make the most of these appliances, here are some practical how-to tips:

1. Preheat When Necessary

For optimal results with the air fryer function, preheat the appliance for a few minutes before adding your food. This ensures even cooking and crispier textures.

2. Use the Right Amount of Water for Steaming

When using the steaming function, follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for the correct water level. Overfilling can cause spills, while underfilling may not produce enough steam for effective cooking.

3. Arrange Food for Maximum Efficiency

• Air Fryer: Place food in a single layer in the basket to allow hot air to circulate freely. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
• Steamer: Use the provided steaming trays or racks to keep food elevated above the water.

4. Adjust Temperatures and Times Appropriately

Each food type requires specific temperature and time settings. Refer to the appliance’s guide or recipe booklet for best results. For example:

• Air frying at higher temperatures works well for crispy foods like fries or chicken wings.
• Lower temperatures are ideal for delicate steaming tasks like cooking fish or vegetables.

5. Experiment with Seasonings

For air-fried dishes, toss ingredients with a light coating of oil and your favorite spices before cooking. For steamed foods, marinate or add seasonings before steaming to infuse flavors.

6. Regularly Clean the Appliance

• Air Fryer: Clean the basket and tray after each use to remove grease and food particles.
• Steamer: Empty and rinse the water reservoir, and clean the steaming trays or racks to prevent residue buildup.

By following these tips, you can unlock the full potential of your Fagor steaming and air frying appliance, making meal preparation healthier and more enjoyable.
