Once the shell turns golden, gently release it from the mold and finish frying until crisp."},"3":{"question":"Why are my rosettes sticking to the iron?\u2028","answer":"Rosettes usually stick if the iron is not hot enough or if the batter is too cold. Make sure the iron is fully heated in oil and lightly coated before dipping into batter."},"4":{"question":"How do you prevent bunuelos from sticking to a rosette iron?\u2028","answer":"Ensure the iron is properly heated, shake off excess oil before dipping, and allow the batter to set slightly before frying. Proper temperature control is key."},"5":{"question":"How do you clean a rosette iron?\u2028","answer":"Let the iron cool slightly, then rinse with warm water and remove any residue with a soft brush. Avoid harsh cleaning tools that may damage the surface."},"6":{"question":"How do you season a rosette iron?\u2028","answer":"Seasoning is done by heating the iron in oil before use.
