== Preparing and Holding ==
== Preparing and Holding ==
* Fries are cooked from a frozen state in a 350°F fryer
* Fries cook for 3 minutes 15 seconds
* Open the fry bag by pulling apart the perforation halfway across the bag
* Carefully pour fries into the basket by grasping the neck of the bag to control amount portioned into basket
* Do not fill the basket more than ½ full. Overfilling will cause fries not to cook properly.
* Close fry bag tightly and put back in freezer
* Slowly lower basket into the hot shortening
* Do not drop another basket into the same fryer within 30 seconds
* Press fry timer button that is set for 3 minutes 15 seconds
* When the shake timer sounds after 1 minute, gently shake basket to keep fries from sticking together
* When the timer sounds again, press the button
* Lift basket from shortening and gently shake in an up and down motion to remove excess shortening
* Dump fries into empty bin; Bin 1 or Bin 2
* Always store the fryer baskets on the fryer bracket when not in use
* Press the 10-minute timer that corresponds to the bin; Bin 1 or Bin 2
* Evenly coat the fries with our fry seasoning using a side-to-side back to front motion
* Tumble fries with scoop to evenly distribute the seasoning salt over fries
* Be careful not to get seasoning into fryers
* The 10-minute hold timer will start automatically when the timer is set
* When the timer reaches 3 minutes 15 seconds it will flash & beep letting you to know to “cook more” fries before these expire
* Drop more fries
* When these fries are done, the 10-minute hold time on the older fries will have expired
* If the fries have not been sold within the 10-minute hold time they must be discarded in the fry waste container

* Take correct size fry carton from holder and place on end of fry scoop

* Place the filled fry carton in the fry ribbon
* Rotate older fries toward the frontline

* Fries are always the last item placed in a bag
* When fries are ordered with a dinner, empty a regular carton onto plate or clamshell
* When picking up a carton of fries, always grasp carton by its side to keep hands from coming into contact with fries
