Naan stored in fridge harden

Question

How to keep the naans soft while they're stored in the fridge?

Kia Pakaun Kitchen · Answer

The fridge actually dries naan out faster, so if you'll eat them within a day, keep them at room temperature instead. If you do need the fridge, wrap each naan tightly in cling film or foil and put them in a zip bag with the air pressed out. To soften them again, sprinkle a few drops of water on each naan and warm it on a hot tawa for 20-30 seconds per side, or wrap in a damp cloth and microwave for 15-20 seconds. For longer storage, the freezer works better than the fridge: wrap them well, freeze, and reheat straight from frozen on the tawa.

You can also brush oil on the outer side of naan and toast it in the toaster. It will be as good as freshly out of tandoor

Bhai, naan in the fridge goes harder than a rock, but don't worry, your banana shake will save you 😄

@Haadiya, I reckon the naan will become even harder that way. It probably needs some moisture before.

My bad, you can sprinkle some water to moisten it first
