Mastering the Art of Crispy Perfection: The Vinegar Trick for Irresistible French Fries (Page 2 ) | March 7, 2025

Instructions

1. Prepare the Potatoes: Peel and cut the potatoes into your desired fry shape—thin strips or chunky wedges.
2. Make the Vinegar Solution: In a large bowl, mix equal parts cold water and white distilled vinegar. A 1:1 ratio is a good starting point.
3. Soak the Potatoes: Submerge the cut potatoes in the vinegar solution, ensuring each piece is coated. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This step infuses a subtle tang and helps reduce excess starch.
4. Dry the Potatoes: After soaking, drain and pat the potatoes dry thoroughly with paper towels. Removing moisture is key to achieving crispy fries, as any leftover water can create steam during frying.
5. Heat the Oil: Heat the vegetable oil to 350-375°F (175-190°C). Fry the potatoes in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the fryer. Cook until golden brown and crispy.
6. Season: Immediately season the hot fries with salt, allowing it to adhere to the surface for enhanced flavor.

Get ready to savor each golden bite and revel in the satisfaction of your crispy French fries!
