- Fine saltto taste
Procedure
0. Cut the potatoes into evenly spaced 0.8–1 cm (0.3–0.5 in) strips. The more uniform they are, the better they'll fry. You can use a potato cutter like the one I've provided in the link.
1. Soak the sticks in ice-cold water for at least 1 hour (preferably 2 hours). This removes a lot of the surface starch, which is essential for crispiness.
2. Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Blanch the potatoes for 3 minutes, just long enough to begin cooking them without breaking them apart. Drain them carefully.
3. Lay them out on clean tea towels or paper towels. They must be completely dry.
4. Lightly dust the fries with cornstarch or potato starch. This creates a thin film that forms an extra-crunchy crust during frying.
5. Heat the oil to 150-160°C. Fry the fries in small batches for 4-5 minutes, until soft but not browned. Drain on paper towels.
6. Let it cool completely (20-30 minutes at room temperature or even 10 minutes in the freezer). This further dries out the surface.
7. Heat the oil to 190-195°C. Fry the fries quickly until golden brown and crispy (about 2-3 minutes). Drain immediately on paper towels.
8. Add salt immediately while they're still hot. If you like, add freshly ground black pepper or finely chopped dried herbs.
