The BoomerEra Appliance That Wound Up Losing Its Job To Air Fryers - Tasting Table
"Cooking is a task that almost everyone does, whether they like it or not. Sometimes it can be a matter of pride and joy, but often it's little more than needing to get dinner on the table. As such, there has long been a revolving door of kitchen appliances that promise to make culinary life easier on us, with many of those old-school kitchen tools now falling into the categories of either outdated or unnecessary to begin with."
"There was a time when rotisserie ovens were the toast of the town, thanks primarily to the mouth-watering advertising of Ronco infomercials. The "but-wait-there's-more" style convinced plenty of home cooks that this could be the solution to all their kitchen woes. Yet, the truth, unfortunately, rarely matched the sales pitch. While these rotisserie ovens do work - they make a beautiful roast chicken and can cook everything from salmon to lamb chops -"
Rotisserie ovens were once popular due to persuasive infomercials promising easy solutions for home cooking. Many rotisserie models could roast chicken and cook salmon or lamb, but their practicality suffered because they were difficult to clean and occupied excessive counter space. Counter space freed by removing a rotisserie oven creates room for a modern countertop appliance: the air fryer. Air fryers gained popularity for offering fast, simple, and healthier cooking. Large-basket air fryer models can accommodate a whole bird, making them a practical alternative for roasting a classic Sunday chicken with less fuss and space requirements.
