Crispy Homemade French Fries
Achieve potato perfection with these simple steps for homemade French fries. Start with starchy potatoes like Russets. Cut them uniformly for even cooking.
The Double Fry Method
For ultimate crispiness, a double fry is key. First, fry at a lower temperature (around 300°F or 150°C) until tender but not colored. Remove and let them cool. Then, increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C) and fry again until golden brown and perfectly crunchy.
Season immediately after the second fry. Salt is classic, but consider garlic powder or paprika for extra flavor. Enjoy your restaurant-quality fries!
