A Note on Air Frying Pre-Packaged Frozen Foods
1. Where microwave ovens often produce hot, mushy results and toaster ovens take forever, air frying
assures reasonably fast, crispy, delicious results!
2. As a rule, depending on the food and amount to be cooked, suggested cook times may have
to be reduced slightly. Always check food halfway through cooking time to determine nal cook
time and temperature.
3. Always check cooking progress after time has expired. If additional air frying is needed,
air fry food for 5 minutes at 370ºF.
4. Check at 1 minute intervals until food tests done.
