  1. 01Lay salami slices flat in the air fryer basket in a single layer. No overlapping.
  2. 02No oil, no seasoning. The salami does everything itself.
  3. 03Ready for the air fryer.
  4. 04Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. They crisp further as they cool.
These render a surprising amount of fat. That's the fat leaving the salami and creating the crunch. The paper towel step absorbs the excess and prevents them from being greasy. Use a rack or trivet in the basket if you have one, as the strong airflow can blow the lighter slices around.
