Canola Oil, or vegetable oil, for frying
Salt, for seasoning fries
Water, to soak and rinse potatoes
Recipe Notes:
1. Slice Evenly: When making French Fries, you can choose between using a knife or a French fry cutter. With a knife, aim for slices that are about 1/4 to 1/2 inch wide for consistent sizing and even cooking. This measurement ensures your fries turn out just right, whether you’re using a knife or a cutter
2. Oil Temperature Control: Use a thermometer to accurately monitor the oil temperature. Maintaining a consistent frying temperature of around 350°F (175°C) throughout the first frying and 400°F (204°C) for the second frying is essential for achieving crispy fries
3. Dry the Potatoes Thoroughly: After soaking, pat the potato strips completely dry with paper towels or a clean kitchen cloth. Excess moisture can cause the oil to splatter and make the fries less crispy
4. Use a Deep Fryer: If you have a deep fryer, consider using it for frying the potatoes. Deep fryers are designed for even cooking and temperature control, making it easier to achieve consistent results
5. Test a Single Fry: Before frying a batch of potatoes, test a single fry to check the oil temperature and adjust it if necessary. This helps ensure that all batches cook evenly
6. Drip Dry Before Serving: After the final fry, let the fries drain on a wire rack or paper towel for a minute or two before serving. This helps remove any excess oil and keeps them crispy
7. Experiment with Seasonings: While traditional salt is classic, feel free to experiment with different seasonings like cajun, creole, taco, or your favorite spice blends to add extra flavor to your fries
8. Serve Promptly: French Fries are at their best when served immediately, so try to time their preparation with the main dish or meal you plan to serve them with
9. Safety First: Be cautious when working with hot oil. Use appropriate equipment like a deep fryer or a heavy, deep pot. Keep children and pets away from the cooking area, and use a kitchen thermometer to monitor the oil temperature
