Part 4/8:
For those seeking perfection, cooking the fries on a wire rack above the cookie sheet provides the best results. This method allows air circulation around the fries, preventing moisture from accumulating and promoting an evenly crispy exterior. It is suggested to bake longer than the package instructions recommend for even crispier outcomes.
The Air Fryer Advantage
If you have an air fryer, this method is highly recommended. Despite skepticism, air fryers operate on convection principles, resulting in impressively crunchy fries. Just remember to adjust cooking times according to your fries’ packaging instructions for optimal results.
