I finally gave up on frozen fries in the air fryer

For years I just dumped the bag straight in, but last week I tried soaking them in cold water for 30 minutes first, then drying them super well. The difference was crazy. The soaked ones came out way crispier and more like real restaurant fries, not soggy at all. I think getting rid of the extra starch is the key. Has anyone else tried this trick, or do you have a better method for perfect fries?

Wait, you have to dry them after soaking? That sounds like a lot of extra work. How do you dry them without making a huge mess, just a ton of paper towels?

Right? It's the worst part.
