===Buy the Paperback Version of this Book and Get the Kindle eBook Version included for FREE=== An air-fryer is a combination of an oven and a deep fryer, which helps prepare healthier alternatives of meals, which are generally cooked in oil. This appliance uses circulated hot air to directly cook the food. The functioning might sound similar to that of an oven but it is the way an air-fryer is designed that makes it stand out. The air-fryer applies the convection process in cooking food, which is facilitated by a mechanical fan, which cooks the items in the cooking chamber. This form of cooking requires a minimal layer of oil applied to the food that needs to be cooked. Hot air up to the temperature of 392F is circulated through the ingredients. This innovative method is what makes the air-fryer different from traditional frying techniques, as it eliminates around 80 percent of the oil that is applied. Depending on the brand of air-fryer, you will have a wide array of features like timer adjustments and heat control settings, which will help make the cooking more precise and convenient. Air-fryers are well suited for home cooking but if you want to cook for a large number of people, you can use an air crisper at first to crisp the ingredients and then bake them in a convection oven. The technique might be the same but the air-fryer is more compact and produces less heat as compared to a convection oven.

"Most studies of 1960s jazz underscore the sounds of famous avant-garde musicians like John Coltrane, Ornette Coleman, and Albert Ayler. Conspicuously absent from these narratives are the more popular jazz artists of the decade that electrified dance clubs, permeated radio waves, and released top-selling records. Names like Eddie Harris, Nancy Wilson, Ramsey Lewis, and Jimmy Smith are largely neglected in most serious work today. Mike Smith rectifies this oversight and explores why critical writings have generally cast off best-selling 1960s jazz as unworthy of in-depth analysis and reverent documentation. The 1960s were a time of monumental political and social shifts. Avant-garde jazz, made by musicians indifferent to public perception aligns well with widely held images of the era. In with the In Crowd: Popular Jazz in 1960s Black America argues that this dominant, and unfortunately distorted, view negates and ignores a vibrant jazz community. These musicians and their listeners created a music defined by socialization, celebration, and Black pride. Smith tells the joyful story of the musicians, the radio DJs, the record labels, and the live venues where jazz not only survived but thrived in the 1960s. This was the music of everyday people, who viewed jazz as an important part of their cultural identity as Black Americans. In an era marked by turmoil and struggle, popular jazz offered a powerful outlet for joy, resilience, pride, and triumph"--
