A: Det er bedst at lave frisk, men du kan forberede de tørre ingredienser på forhånd og blande med væske lige før stegning.

Q: Hvorfor bruge mousserende vand i dejen?
A: Kulsyren gør dejen let og sprød.

Q: Kan jeg bage løgringe i stedet for at stege?
A: Ja, hæld dejen i, overtræk derefter med brødkrummer og bag ved 425°F, indtil den er gylden.

Q: Hvilke løg er bedst til løgringe?
A: Søde løg (som Vidalia) eller gule løg er ideelle til smag og tekstur.
