Tips & Tricks (5)

Prick Potatoes for Perfect Texture 🥔
Pierce each potato 3-4 times with a fork before air frying to prevent bursting and ensure even moisture release, resulting in fluffier interiors.
Oil Coating Creates Maximum Crispiness ✨
Brush potatoes lightly with high smoke point oil rather than just seasoning dry—this creates that coveted ultra-crispy skin while keeping the inside tender.
Salt Generously on Damp Skin 🧂
Apply kosher salt immediately after oiling when the surface is still slightly wet; this helps the seasoning adhere and creates a flavorful crust that won't fall off.
Skip Foil for True Crispiness 🎯
Arrange potatoes directly on the air fryer basket without foil to allow hot air circulation on all sides, delivering uniformly crispy skins that oven-baking can't match.
Check Doneness by Piercing 🔪
Insert a fork or knife into the thickest part—it should slide through with minimal resistance; medium potatoes cook in 30-35 minutes at 400°F, but size variations matter.
