5 Cooking Tips for Making Perfect Crispy Fries at Home

    


    French fries are the perfect snack for any age, occasion, or mood. Crispy, salty potato fingers never disappoint. It's a must-have side dish for burgers and a must-have at food stalls. When you think about it, french fries recipes seem simple enough, but when we make them at home, we end up with fries that aren't as crispy as they would be in a restaurant. Why? Well, perfect cooking is all about mastering specific skills. Every recipe has its own dos and don'ts; even seemingly ordinary fries. 


Here are 5 suggestions for making the best french fries:

1. Correctly Cut the Potatoes

    Make careful to cut the raw potatoes for the dish at a thickness of 1/4 inch. The optimal thickness for fries is what all eateries and cafés strive for.

2. Make the fries in advance 

It's a fantastic approach to achieving the ideal texture. The raw potato fingers should be boiled for 7-8 minutes in cold water with little vinegar and salt. Then remove the fries and place them on a kitchen towel to cool.

3. Fry for Just a Moment 

Boiling the potatoes first, then frying them for only 50 seconds in extremely hot oil. Put them out on a piece of paper. Allow them to calm down.

4. Freeze The Fries

The semi-fried fries should be frozen once they have completely cooled down to ensure that they take on a hard shape.

5. Avoid defrosting

The goal is to have really crispy potato fingers. They would get sloppy again if they were defrosted. So simply remove them from the freezer, drop them into heating oil, and fry till golden brown.
