French chefs used to measure these fries with a ruler.
These are pommes Pont-Neuf — thick-cut French fries with a classic double-fry method for a fluffy centre and crisp golden crust. Cut to roughly 1 cm thick and 7 cm long, fry once at 130°C, rest, then fry again at 180°C until beautifully golden.
Serve with salt and dip them in béarnaise sauce for the full experience.

And don’t waste the potato trimmings — use them for my aligot.

Would you actually measure your fries with a ruler? 😂 And what are you dipping these in: béarnaise, mayo, or ketchup? My béarnaise video is here:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/LR_6xN58N74

I used to measure my fry with a ruler
No ruler. My eyeballs are my ruler and theyre accurate.
Lincoln logs of French fries
That's how we measure hash 😅
I bet he’s got a 12incher. That cm is about 2 inches to wide 😂😂
Thats one centimeter? Is one centimeter half an inch?
Unnecessary pretentious presentation for the humble chip. Of course, it's the French
C'est 1 pouce d'épais tes frites, pas un cm 😂
