How do I store leftovers?
I wouldn’t typically store air fried french fries to have for the next day. I always make them in small batches. However,I have saved french fries from a restaurant and have heated them up the next day in the air fryer.
Always store leftovers in clean,food-grade containers. The type of container doesn’t really matter. Use zip lock,glass,plastic,whatever! Make sure to store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Best Air Fryer Tips!
- Preheating ensures that the fries cook evenly and achieve the desired crispiness.
- Avoid Overcrowding:Cooking in smaller batches will help the fries cook more evenly and get crispier.
- Shaking the Basket:Shaking the basket halfway through cooking helps ensure that all the fries cook evenly.
- Experiment with Seasonings:Feel free to experiment with different seasonings like garlic powder,paprika,or Cajun spice to add an extra kick to your fries.
