My air fryer fries were always soggy and then I realized my mistake
I got my air fryer about 8 months ago and have been making fries constantly. They always came out limp and sad. Last Tuesday I was watching a video and the guy said you have to soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes to rinse off the starch. I tried it that night, dried them super well with a towel, and tossed them in a tiny bit of oil. Huge difference. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Now I soak them every time and people at work are asking why my lunch smells so good. What else am I missing that I've been doing wrong this whole time?
