Blank the shredded potatoes in water for about two minutes and they will be cooked.

Potato shreds are a dish made from potatoes as the main ingredient and are a popular dish. Due to the high starch content in potatoes, potatoes tend to stick to the pan when fried, and the taste is sticky and unclear, so they are usually blanched before frying. Generally, blanch potato shreds for about 2 minutes. Thinner potato shreds only need to be blanched for about 1 minute. Thick potato shreds need to be blanched for more than 2 minutes.

1. Wash off the surface starch before blanching, and add some white vinegar when blanching to make the potato shreds crispier. During the process of blanching, you need to pay attention to the control of heat and time. If the heat is too high, the potato slices will be cooked, and if the heat is too low, the potato slices will be undercooked. Therefore, it is recommended to use medium heat, and at the same time, always observe the changes in the potato slices and master the blanching time. Generally speaking, the appropriate blanching time is about 2-3 minutes, which ensures that the potato slices are cooked thoroughly while maintaining a certain crispness.
