Cooking Instructions
- 1
Peel the potatoes
- 2
Cut the potatoes into quarter inch strips to look like French fries. You can cut them in the length and size you prefer.
- 3
1/4" strips
- 4
Put the potatoes in cold water and let them sit for 2 hours. Changing the water after 1 hour. This step is critical because it gets the starch out of the potato. It makes for great French fries.
- 5
After 2 Hours drain the French fries and dry them with a cloth.
- 6
Heat the cooking oil to 275°F.
- 7
Cook the fries in batches for 2-3 minutes or until they start to turn white. Don't over cook them. Take out of the pan and place on a paper towel lined cookie sheet and put into the freezer to cool off and stop the cooking. About 5 to 7 minutes.
- 8
After they have cooled down take the fries out of the freezer and heat oil to 375°F.
- 9
Once the oil is heated cook the fries until golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes. Right after they are taken out of the oil salt to taste.

Who doesn't love crisp salted french fries?! Frying them twice is what makes them crispy! We also do this with sweet potatoes. Tossing them in sugar and cinnamon instead of salt. Marilyn -

For perfect French Fries, do NOT just fry potatoes. Thanks to millions of dollars spent on research by companies like McDonald’s, we now know that for a moist interior and crisp exterior the key is boil, then fry, then freeze, and then fry again. I’ve never tried better fries than these.#bestfries #potatoes #frites Ricardo -
