What is the best technique for shaking fries after removing them from the fryer?

  1. Hold them in one hand

  2. Using a towel while shaking

  3. Lift out and shake with two hands

  4. Allow to cool before shaking

The correct answer is: Lift out and shake with two hands

The best technique for shaking fries after removing them from the fryer is to lift them out and shake with two hands. This method ensures that the fries are evenly coated with oil and any excess is removed effectively. By using two hands, you have better control over the fries and can create a more vigorous shaking motion, which helps to achieve a better texture and prevents the fries from becoming soggy. Proper shaking is important as it contributes to the ideal crispiness that customers expect. Using one hand might not provide adequate control or allow for an effective shake, and using a towel could introduce unnecessary fibers or material into the food product. Allowing the fries to cool before shaking does not benefit the overall outcome, as they need to be shaken while hot to help remove excess oil and maximize crispiness.
