Tips to Cook the Perfect Homemade French Fries

Opt for high-starch potatoes as they have less water content and more starch.

Choosing Potatoes

Cut the potatoes into uniform sized sticks toensure even cooking.

Cut Properly

Soak the potato pieces in cold water for atleast 30 mins to remove excess starch.

Soak in Cold Water

Use the double fry technique while frying them two quick sessions with a short gap to get the perfect crunch.

Double Fry Technique

It is best to season the fries immediately after removing from oil as hot fries absorb the seasoning better.

Seasoning

Choose an oil with a high smoke point as it ensures that the oil will remain stable at high temperatures.

Using Oil

Post frying, place the fries on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
