ついにエアフライヤーを買いました。正確に言うとパートナーが私の誕生日に買ってくれました。

エアフライヤーとは高温の熱風を使って食べ物を調理する機械です。これを使うと普通のオーブンより速く調理ができ、材料の外側がカリカリになるので揚げ物のようになります。ちなみに日本ではノンフライヤーというそうです。

私は一年前ぐらいからエアフライヤーを買おうかどうか迷っていました。すぐ買わなかった理由は二つあります。
一つ目は私の家のキッチンがとても狭いからです。エアフライヤーはとても大きいです。エアフライヤーをキッチンに置くと材料を切ったり、パンの生地をこねたりするスペースがなくなります。
二つ目の理由は私がすぐに飽きる性格だからです。新しいものを買ってもすぐに飽きて使わなくなったら、お金が無駄になってしまいます。

実際エアフライヤーを使ってみると、うわさどおり簡単にフライドチキンやフライドポテトを作ることができました。外側がカリカリになってまるで油で揚げたみたいでした。フライドチキンやフライドポテトはいつもレストランで食べたり、買って食べたりしていたので自分で作れるようになったのはうれしいです。また、今までオーブンで作っていた料理をエアフライヤーを使って作ると半分ぐらいの時間で出来上がります。私は最近エアフライヤーで焼きとうもろこしを作ることにはまっています。

これから飽きないようにエアフライヤーのレシピをいろいろ試してみたいと思います。皆さんはエアフライヤーを持っていますか？エアフライヤー用のレシピでおすすめはありますか？よかったら私のレッスンに来て教えてください。

More than half of Japanese children spend at least one hour every day playing video games.

That's according to a 2022 survey by Japanese internet company Nifty Corporation.

Twenty-four percent of kids said they play for between one and two hours a day. Thirteen percent said they play for between two and three hours, and 17% reported playing three hours or more.

Only 9% said they do not play at all.

More than 2,300 elementary and junior high school children took part in the survey, which was done in September and October of 2022.

Almost 80% said they usually play video games alone. When they do play with others, they more often play with people online than with someone else in the room.

Parents in Japan have spoken of their concerns about the amount of time their children spend playing video games. In 2020, Kagawa prefecture said people under 20 should limit their time spent playing video games to one hour per day during the week and 90 minutes on weekends.

The Nifty survey also asked children about rules in their homes for playing video games.

Fifty-three percent said they have time limits for playing, with 44% saying they can only play after they have finished their other tasks.

One in five of the children surveyed said they are not allowed to play with strangers online, and more than half are not allowed to spend money when playing online games.
