More and more people are starting to throw away the deep fryers as they have discovered an old appliance which is more friendly to the pockets of the average consumer.
In recent years, the air fryers are present in every household, as they are promoted as faster and healthier alternatives to traditional frying and ovens. But lately, they’re being displaced by a device that’s older, cheaper, and seemingly just as effective: the halogen furnace.
Known for its glass bowl design and unique cooking method, the halogen furnace uses a halogen lamp to generate heat, cooking food inside a compact space that maintains high temperatures. Unlike air fryers, which use hot air to cook, halogen ovens rely on the intensity of the halogen lamp itself, which often comes with an adjustable thermostat.
While her popularity fryer has skyrocketed due to its ability to ‘fry’ food with minimal oil, making it a healthier option for many, higher-end models can cost quite a bit of money, and the rising cost has some questioning whether it’s worth the investment. On the contrary, the halogen furnaces they offer a simpler, more economical solution to cooking without having to fry or wait for a full-sized oven. A common setup includes a glass bowl in which the food is placed and a protective outer basket to prevent burns, with the powerful halogen lamp placed on top to provide consistent heat.
His revival halogen oven has made people question the necessity of the more expensive fryer. Online forums and cooking enthusiasts alike have loved this appliance. The appeal of an economic alternative to it fryer has led many to believe that, as convenient as it is, the deep fryer could join the ranks of modern kitchen appliances that are eventually replaced – like the once famous bread machine or juicer.
