dried out glaze

to the glaze experts

I have not been able to work for the last 6 months or so and the glazes
that I had mixed up at that time have all dried out into desert like
lumps in the bottom of the buckets. Can I just add water, let them soak
over night and mix them with my drill mixer, sieve, and be ready to go.
or will something magic have evaporated with the water?

thanks bunches

The drier they are, the harder they will be to loosen up,
but nothing has evaporated out of it except water.
