we advise following our recommendations on
the type of potatoes and oil to use.
The potato : balance and pleasure on a daily basis !
Potatoes are an excellent source of energy and contain vitamins. Potatoes vary enormously in size, shape and taste according to the variety, climate and growing conditions. Each variety has its particular cropping time, yield, size, color, keeping quality and culinary uses. A potato’s characteristics when cooked may vary according to its origin and seasonality.
Which variety should I use ?
As a general rule, we suggest that you use special potatoes that have been recommended for French fries as Yukon gold . When potatoes have been freshly harvested, they have a higher water content, we recommend cooking the fries for a few more minutes.
Where should I store potatoes ?
The best place to store potatoes is in a dark cellar or cool cupboard (between 42° and 46° F), away from the light.
How should I prepare potatoes for ?
To obtain the best results, you must ensure that the French fries do not stick together. With this in mind, wash the whole potatoes and then cut them into fries using a sharp knife or french fry cutter . The fries should be of equal size so that they cook at the same time. Wash the cut potatoes in plenty of cold water until it runs clear in order to remove as much of the starch as possible. Dry the French fries thoroughly using a clean highlyabsorbent towel. The French fries must be perfectly dry before putting them in the otherwise they will not turn crispy.
To check that they are dry enough pat them with paper towel just before cooking. If there is any wetness on the paper dry them again. Remember the cooking time of the French fries will vary according to the weight of fries and the batch of potatoes used.
How should I cut the potatoes?
The size of a fry influences how crunchy or soft it is. The thinner your French fries , the more crunchy they will be and conversely, thicker fries will be softer inside. You can cut your fries to the following thickness and length according to your tastes: Thickness: American style: 1/4 x 1/4 inches / Thin: 1/3 x 1/3 inches / Standard: 1/2 x 1/2 inches Length: Up to approx 3
1/2
