French Fries 🍟

[Fog]

I love my fries.....

I've been working on making a great French Fry at home and it's been a struggle.

The latest thing I did was buy some Beef Tallow and mix it in with my cooking oil and I was surprised. It not only helps get the fries crispy but helps with a nice flavor.

How do you make fries?

First dunk until they float and cooks them....

Second dunk to crisp them up and give them color....

Double-fried, peanut oil & beef tallow and you can't go wrong.

I don't really consume enough fast food to comment on the poll. Five Guys are good, and McDonald's used to be good, though someone told me they changed the oil formulation.

I never make French fries.

Just American fries/home fries/fried potatoes.

I buy make Rally’s fries from Meijer sometimes. Highly recommend.

Don't get much fast food since the nearest place is over 14 miles away.

If I'm not getting them at one of the local mom&pop restaurants, then I'll make my own in either the GE deep fryer (using peanut oil) or in the air fryer.

This.

Cut them as uniformly as possible, rinse/soak them three times in about 30 minutes, dry them as best you can, then fry at 320 for 4 minutes and remove to paper towels to drain, then fry again at 370 fou 4 minutes.

It’s a lot of work for French fries, but they’re great.

A little duck fat is good too.

Never tried it. True Belgian fries are the best in the world by at least an order of magnitude, so whatever they're doing is the gold standard.
