Brilio.net - Fried fritters that become soft and cold easily can be caused by several factors, including using oil that is not hot enough, batter that is too runny, or errors in the frying process.
One way to ensure that fried food doesn't get soft and cools quickly is to make sure the oil is hot before using it for frying . Oil that is not hot enough can cause the dough to absorb too much oil, resulting in a soft and oily result. Apart from that, make sure the dough used has the right consistency so that the results are crispy and not soft.
Not only that, fried food that is stored for several hours can also become soft and cold. Meanwhile, to reheat it, some people usually fry it again in oil. Even though it makes them hot and crispy again, this process tends to make the fried food oily and becomes mushy easily when it cools.
To overcome this, a number of people usually use an air fryer when they want to warm fried food. However, if you don't have this tool, there are special techniques to solve it easily.
In more detail, Instagram user @tudinarkhumairoh once shared a trick for warming up fried food that is already soft and cold with a simple tool in the kitchen.

The method is quite easy. First, place the pan on the stove. Then turn on the stove fire to the lowest volume. If the pan is hot, place or arrange the frying pan.

Well, a hot frying pan will help warm up soggy fried foods. Apart from that, the remaining oil that sticks to the fried food will also make the food crispy again as before. Do this process for a few minutes, turning it back and forth so that it crisps evenly and doesn't burn.
Next, turn off the stove and remove the frying pan. That way, the fried food will not only be warm again, but will also be crispy and more delicious to eat. Apart from that, this method also makes fried foods tend to be healthier.
"It's lower in fat too, it's different from frying it again," explained Instagram @tudinarkhumairoh.
