At what minute mark should you shake the fryer basket when cooking Crinkle Fries?

The correct timing to shake the fryer basket when cooking Crinkle Fries is at the 4:00 minute mark. Shaking the basket at this point is crucial as it helps ensure that the fries cook evenly and achieve the desired crispy texture. This action prevents them from sticking together and ensures that all sides are exposed to hot oil, which facilitates better cooking.

By shaking the basket at this specific time, you're optimizing the cooking process, allowing the fries to develop a consistent golden color and crunchy exterior. This technique is essential in achieving Zaxby's standards for food quality and presentation. Proper timing in cooking, particularly with fried items, is critical in maintaining the right texture and flavor that customers expect.
