Microwave: ahhhh baby all done Food: I’m not even warm yet….

Food still has ice on it, plate gives you 2nd degree burns.

If your microwave has the option, set it to power level 6 (or 60%) and up the time by 1.5-2x. No more blisteringly hot plates with ice puck food on top!

Have you got a minute to talk about our lord and saviour Air Fryer?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago

Heretic! Air Fryers are just mini convection ovens invented by the devil!

You can't even see inside them!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

That’s Fryer Tuck.

Efficiency baby

You can also deny it finishing by stopping at the 1s mark on the timer :)

Whenever I use the pullout method, it spends the rest of the day making noises and flashing me. Trying to tempt me back.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

That's what SSRIs do.

Two minutes if you don't know what you're doing - you'll be hot on the outside but still cold within.

Gotta take your time, reduce your power, give that warmth time to propagate within.

Unless it's bacon, where I think 2 minutes might be enough to turn it into pure plasma with how much it's popping and exploding by 10 seconds.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago

Oven: 5 more minutes, just like that!

Microwave: mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm ding

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Yeah but the microwave makes it all soggy and limp.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago

that's just a sign it's been fully utilized

Air fryer is the best of both worlds.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

I love being able to both skip the preheat time and reduce the cooking time by 25% on top of it in my convection toaster oven/air fryer.

Just sucks that they gave it a shit UI that makes me miss the analog controls of my previous toaster oven.

Toaster: I'll let you know when I'm done

My new oven is so energy efficient it takes 20 mins to warm up before cooking a pizza for ten minutes.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Also, oven: frozen pizza right on the grate.

Microwave: you put that shit on a plate and a paper napkin on top of it, don't want all the other food inside the microwave touching your food
