Can you put metal in an air fryer?
Let’s get started:
Can I use a Steel Bowl in Air Fryer?
Yes, you can use a steel or metal bowl in an air fryer if it’s oven-safe (500˚F). Stainless steel bowls are great for air fryers as glass bowls are prone to shatter under extreme temperatures.
Can you put metal in an air fryer?
Yes, you can put metals in an air fryer. Metal containers are oven-safe. Oven-safe cookware can withstand oven heat (usually up to 500˚) for extended periods without melting or getting damaged.
Which utensils can be used in an air fryer?
You can use oven-proof stainless steel utensils, glass, ceramic, and other metal utensils in the air fryer for cooking, baking, or even reheating. A stainless steel basket is the most convenient way to cook food evenly because the hot air flow will be smooth.
What metals you can’t put in an air fryer?
Metal pans or bowls have elements made from plastic or other materials that can deteriorate on heating, and can’t be used in air fryers. Also, try to avoid metal trays that have some paintings on them.
Some of them are not made to withstand heat and you can ruin them very quickly. Or on heating, these paintings on your pans can release toxic elements when they will heat.
Can you put a metal tray in an air fryer?
Yes, you can use a metal tray without any paintings in an air fryer as long as it fits inside the air fryer. The metal tray or dish should be oven-proof and should be able to withstand 400 degrees Fahrenheit temperatures.
Can you put metal skewers in an air fryer?
Yes, metal skewers can be used in an air fryer. Metal skewers can withstand high temperatures. Just make sure that they fit perfectly in your air fryer basket.
If you don’t have the right size of metal skewers, you can use bamboo skewers in the air fryer basket.
Can you put stainless steel in an air fryer?
Yes, you can use stainless steel bowls, dishes, steel plates, and trays in an air fryer.
Can you put plates in an air fryer?
Yes, you can put a plate in an air fryer, as long as it doesn’t restrict the airflow and is rated oven-safe. Plates can be used but it will take much more time to cook evenly because the hot air will not reach the bottom of the plate properly.
Can You Put a Metal Thermometer in an Air Fryer?
Yes. Just make sure that it is designed to work at those temperatures. Check the instructions and if the manufacturer allows you to use them in the oven, then you can use this metal thermometer also in the air fryer.
Can You Put a Metal Rack in the Air Fryer?
Yes, metal racks are safe to be used in the air fryer. You can use the metal racks in the air fryer to elevate the food so the hot air can circulate even more easily on all sides and create a crispier coating.

Can I heat meals in paper plates or Microwaveable meals, in Emerald Laggassi air fryer??
Yes, you can use the Emeril Lagasse air fryer to reheat your meals. You can use reheat or keep warm function to heat meals.
Using a perforated paper plate in an air fryer is ok. Also remember, that microwave and air fryer functions are not the same. Air fryer uses a fan to circulate hot air inside and microwave uses heat waves to cook foods. Two different things.
I placed frozen chicken nuggets in Laggassi Air Fryer Bassket & it was tough & dry! Did I do something wrong? It was 10 minutes and 350 Degrees! Just use to microWave!😞

If your air fried chicken nuggets are tough and dry and you’re not getting the crispy test, you may want to apply a little bit of oil to the nuggets.
Remember to shake the basket halfway of cooking. Pause the timer, open the basket and shake it properly. With 350 F cook for 8 minutes and pause the timer after 5 minutes of cooking to shake it.
Hope this helps!
