  16. If you are making the schnitzels in advance, it is recommended that you transfer them from the paper towels to a cooling rack. The cooling rack allows the water vapor from the schnitzels to evaporate without damaging the schnitzels' coating. This way, your schnitzels will remain crispier and tastier.
