Theyre pre blanched fries. Basically, those frozen fries are already at the final point of Franks fries. Restaurants might pick up a better quality fry than some store brands, and they might use a better quality oil than what youd use at home... which is almost likely canola oil which is the cheapest.

I'm Belgian, this sucks dude

the point of the cold water is to make the outside porous and jagged so it has more surface to bind to the oil and gets crisper. You can get close enough just boiling them (in water) for 5 minutes beforehand. No need for all the rigamorole.

Do you still refrigerate the peeled potatoes overnight?

@@NaturalAegyo No we don't. They can be fried for the first time immediately after peeling. The key part is to let them cool down for about 45m to 60m in a towel on your counter top, before you go for the 2nd frying.

true

Something in this video was hard to replicate? Come on, you cut them and leave them in water for a couple of minutes, dry them and then make sure the oil's hot before you put them in the frying pan. You can just put one in to check the temperature and put the rest of them in later. You don't even need to do a lot of what Frank did unless you're absolutely obsessed with getting them to be "restaurant quality". Pretty sure they actually just put them in the freezer over night in most restaurants but whatever. Many people make big batches of them and freeze them in small portion size bags for a week or two. Making french fries is like the easiest thing to make after I don't know a sandwich and pouring cereal and milk into a bowl.

this is most definetly not how belgian fries are made -source: i'm belgian Belgian Fries are fried in animal fat, not vegetable oil. preferably ox. also the potatos are first peeled before being cut up, the slice of the fries is also on the larger side. belgian fries are not thin sticks. when theyre cut up, first bake them at 170 degrees celcius then let em cool down and bake them at 190 degrees celsius. they are ready when thay start to sing when you hold em out of the fat. with singing i meanai crispy nice sound they make when out of the fat. also these fries are way overcooked. the crispiness kicks in from the second frying not from being cooked that long. the process isnt that hard... just takes a bit of time.

word

I find it hard to believe most restaurants would go through the trouble. Also there is no way they'd shell out the cash for something like duck fat. These are better than what you'd get at almost any restaurant imo.

There is more reasons to not do that as well , getting rid of that quantity of oil is a big pain in the butt ! seeing how cheap fries are, it's probably better to just go get them yourself at a restaurant and come back , or order them :P

@@bellybutthole69 If you're throwing out your oil after one fry session you're doing it wrong. Strain the oil and keep it in a jar.

@@SovietButcher I mean yes totally, but I would say that is part of being a pain in the butt hehe. And I say that for myself of course, some people might not care at all which is totally fine.

Whoops sorry i just realised you have one

I know it sounds like a nice and fun tidbit to say "French fries are actually from Belgium" but that's a myth created by a single person and then parroted over and over again. Just because of the current popularity in Belgium doesn't mean it was invented there. Fries in Belgium are tasty and great but they were not invented there. They were actually a street food from Paris introduced to Belgium at a later date.

@@Sir_Walrus they were street food in Paris, introduced by a Belgian in Paris ... at least get your facts straight

@@outty84 No, They were introduced in Brussels after an industrialist moved from Paris. Get your facts straight. and the American soldiers mistaking Belgium from France is obviously made up since the term "French Fries" existed from before WW1 to begin with.

I thought there was eymtological confirmation that the name was originally about the cut, not the place of origin! French cut fries, (ie, julienned, ie, long thin sticks) eventually just lazily became French fries.

One way I heard it is the actual name is French Style (referring to how they are cut, julienne) Fried Potatoes. Seems like a better explanation than some guy couldn't figure out what country he was in.

just google the conversion, you lazy bum

This sounds like a fantastic idea. Can you share the specifics such as time and temperature? I must also try this.

@@muryanli Thanks for your interest! I use the same temperatures demonstrated by Frank “Potato”:-) Chilled and dried, hand-cut 1/4-inch thick potato sticks are lightly tossed in oil, then laid on the metal mesh in single layer with space to allow hot air to pass in between. After preheating the convection oven to 300ºF, insert the mesh and cook for 10 - 15 minutes. Remove and place the mesh in fridge on top of the bowl used to toss the sticks for 20 ~ 30 minutes. (Let them chill longer when I have time.) Afterward, while preheating the convection oven to 375ºF or 380ºF, remove the sticks into the same bowl and toss in order to rub the remaining oil on the bowl. (As there is only a tiny bit of oil to begin with, this could be symbolic and does nothing:-) Place the fries back onto the mesh. When the oven is ready, cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Remove fries into the bowl again, add flavor and toss. The metallic sound between the fries and glaze is very satisfying. Even though I still inspect during both blanching (observe degree of translucency) and searing (prevent char) using oven light, this is only because I am still experimenting. Compared with single-heating, I am no longer agonizing over multiple variables. Each stage has a simple goal. I am confident that I can reach a single pair of numbers if I can control quantity of potatoes. After these experiments, I feel that American Test Kitchen’s total brushoff of convection oven as air fryer may not be fully justified. ATK is correct about multilayers of convection oven: They are for cooking different foods simultaneously, not to increase cooking surface. My oven is a 15.5Q NuWave Brio (1.8 kW) with four slots, good for 3 medium russet potatoes on one mesh. I did try two meshes on the middle two slots, 5 potatoes. But then, I tend to switch the meshes in the middle of cooking, adding complexity. However, I am no longer certain that ATK folks have tested two-stage heating when they say “we have tried every method” to cook French fries in comparison with drawer-style air fryer. To answer the loss of simplicity in this method, I can swear off my physics degrees that overnight chilling and 3-hour post-blanching chilling are both overkills. The first chilling needs to be longer because water's heat capacity is huge. (Some recommend ice-water mixture to speed up.) Overnight is really a very convenient home cooking measure. The second chilling suffers from poor heat conductivity of air and plant fibre, as well as from low heat capacity of surrounding air. But if my potato sticks are on a single layer surrounded by cool air, there is no reason to wait for 3 hours. My estimate would be 40 minutes max. I wish I had space in freezer to speed up the second chilling, though.

I immediately applied the technique to air fry, and happy to report excellent results! I am certainly familiar with the concept of second frying, but never cared for potato fries before I got my convection oven/fryer. More importantly, I didn't imagine blanching in oil! Right before watching this, I was carefully testing combinations of temperature and other aspects in preparation, hoping to find that perfect compromise between surface char and internal texture. After learning about using fridge to cool down (and much lower temperature for blanching), I now get near-perfect fries every time without having to think! (Granted, it took a lot more time.)

​@@YuanLiuTheDoc Great breakdown. I love the depth of analysis over the simple fry, which is especially warranted given the unexpected results of an excellent fry from an air fryer. That said: why do you prefer the air fryer over frying in oil?

@@oliverbabb9780 You mean other than that, freshly injured by the missed membership in InstantPot mafia, I am determined to be part of air fryer squad? (Kidding aside, novelty is a factor for me to start looking at potato "fries".) My main problem is maintenance, like storing/disposing used oil, ventilation, and cleaning. As deep fried food is not a mainstay in my home, borrowing restaurant kitchen (aka takeout) is a better option for the occasional indulgence. I actually have an electric deep fryer locked under the counter, unlike the versatile convection oven that occupies the space of my old toaster (which was my oven-standin). I sometimes use the deep fryer for hotpot, because it can be returned to storage immediately after.

Just use an air fryer.

@@stevenalexander4721 omfg your a genius

Refrigerator steps aren't key. I'd say the key is to blanch them to fully cook them, dry/let them cool off, then fry them on a higher heat to crisp them up

Oof

So yeah

So It been a years how was the fries?

Exactly!!!

Chef Frank! Any thoughts on this? I’ve been making my potato wedges and roasted potatoes using this strategy, except I raise the pH with a little baking soda. Chef kenji Lopez alt says higher pH gets crispier roasted potatoes. Forgot why - maybe less gluten?

@@kenstravels981 Kenji is absolutely right. When you boil potatoes in basic water the starch breaks down much quicker. This creates these micro blisters on the potatoes. These micro blisters crisp up and you get a deliciously crunchy roast potatoes. The basic water helps with browning too, accelerating the maiard reaction. Acid does pretty much the exact opposite. It firms up the potato and reduces the browning. So I prefer acid for French fries, which I like with a firm exterior, and base for roast potatoes, which I like with a crumbly crunchy exterior. You also use the same technique when making potato chips(crisps if you're from the UK). Soaking the potatoes in acidic water helps with the potatoes not browning too quick, so you can get a crispy chip that's not brown as hell

@@kenstravels981 potato protein is patatin, gluten is typically found in certain grains. Other than that, good info. I'll try to remember the vinegar trick.

is it ok to boil them and then fry? is refrigeration necessary?

Facts

I think this method is way overkill to be honest. Just slice the spuds evenly (a mandolin isn't necessary, especially if you have little space to begin), heat the oil in a pan for 10 minutes (may need longer if the kitchen is cold like ours) and cook for approximately ten minutes or so depending on the amount. Drain onto kitchen roll. I think the only major problem is what to do with the oil if you don't have chips often so you wouldn't have a permanent pan of oil on the stovetop.

@@1Thunderfire oil storage isn’t even an issue if you own a deep fryer like I do.

As far as I know, you can. Just make sure to dry then off before putting them in the oil for the final fry. I don't usually do it, I like my food fresh and have plenty of time, but what you propose is the idea behind store sold fry-ready fries (though some are just pre-fried). Though I can't offer much insight on this, your choice of oil might affect the freezing point, as well as the taste of the fries. This is just about the limit of my knowledge on this matter, might have to wait for a more experienced cook to come along and correct me, or just experiment a bit. If anything I said doesn't hold up, feel free to correct me

That is actually what we do in the Netherlands, we buy a bag of frozen fries at the supermarket. They have only been blanched in the factory so we can immediately fry them up in one go.

Absolutely. This is exactly what frozen french fires at the grocery store are. Blanched, frozen fries. The ice crystals forming inside the fries will even make their insides fluffier. Fry, freeze, fry is how I've always made french fries. Perfectly crispy, perfectly fluffy. The best way to eat several potatoes xD

@@Lolbama2012 Hoping that the end result is better than store-bought frozen fries, which have a cardboard texture and are not very tasty.

After frozen, need to let out about 2-3 hours before using to let fries get to room temperature, then wipe with paper towel to dry excess water, also need to be more careful when put fries into hot oil. I don't have microwave so I don't know is it possible to microwave it when got out from freezer. If it possible then can skip multiple step, basically let out, microwave, dry check, fry.

The batch is contaminated!

Did u use duck fat too?

@@budrig Ah, good question. No, just used canola oil. Didn't want to buy duck fat for one batch of fries. The one thing that was important, that he mentioned, was the oil temp as you cook the fries in batches as that temp really drops when dropping in those chilled fries. I got impatient with a couple batches and dropped in some fries before the oil got back up to the required temp. Or, in a couple cases, I pulled the fries too early. For those, they weren't as crispy as they sat on the table as we were eating so I just refried them and they were great.

@@stampscapes Just a heads up that it's not just the fact they aren't so crispy, cooking fries in low temp oil makes them absorb the oil (not so good health-wise).
