Just realized my frozen fries went from soggy to perfect in 2 minutes flat
I used to just dump the bag in the basket. Got limp, pale sticks every time. Last Tuesday, I saw a video where a guy said to soak them in hot water for 120 seconds before drying them off. Tried it with a bag of store brand crinkles. The difference was crazy. They came out super crispy outside, fluffy inside. The water must wash off the extra starch that makes them steam. Now I won't make them any other way. Anyone got other tricks for frozen stuff in the air fryer?

Wait, you can DO that? I've been eating sad, limp fries for years like a total fool.

Read somewhere that the trick is to use cold water, not warm, before cooking them. Something about the starch. Tried it once and my fries actually came out crispy for once.
