Just realized my air fryer manual was actually right about preheating
I always skipped preheating because who has time for that, right? But I finally timed it last night - three extra minutes before putting chicken in made the skin way crispier than any of my 20 minute cooks before. Anyone else just ignore the preheat button until now?
Yeah the "who has time for that" thing was me too. I started preheating my air fryer after I got tired of soggy breaded pork chops. Three minutes at 380 before throwing them in made the coating actually stay crunchy instead of falling off. Now I just turn it on before I even start prepping the food.
