Showerthought: I was plating fries under the heat lamp for two years and my old sous in Austin never bothered to correct me
I always dropped the basket, salted them, then parked them under the lamp while I finished the rest of the ticket, and they came out limp every single time. Last month I finally worked a busy Saturday next to a guy who pulls them the second they float, salts them in the basket, and sends them straight to the pass. Is there a reason nobody teaches this on day one?
