The damp paper towel and microwave trick for dried out cookies works a treat! Obviously not perfect, but close enough. I’ll take it!
You can do that with leftover rice. Sprinkle a dessert spoon of water on the rice. Put a damp piece of paper towel over the top. Microwave for 2 minutes.
If you have an airfryer you can bring day old bread rolls back to life by running them under water and airfry for a couple of minutes. You can do it your oven too.
That’s interesting with the bread! I do have a wee one, but too hot for anything yesterday. Lucky we don’t really have to worry about the latter two, but I brought cookies back with me and they weren’t sealed in the usual way. They were almost rock-like and lacked flavour yesterday. Today I did the trick and was pleasantly surprised. Afternoon coffee was much nicer this time around!
I'm glad it worked. I'm very eager to try this.
