Most people make their own French fries at home by cutting the potatoes into shapes suitable for frying, usually 9.5 mm wide sticks, and then frying them in hot oil at 190 degrees Celsius until golden brown. This is the most common method of frying French fries, but the French fries are still raw in the middle. A three-Michelin-starred restaurant in Bray, England, has invented a way to triple-cook French fries. Simmer the cut potato strips in water until they are about to loosen up, and then place them on a grid of a vacuum equipment to control the moisture through vacuum. Finally, fry the potato strips twice in the traditional way. . Although the entire process takes an hour and the vacuum equipment costs up to $2,000, the fries cooked in this way are the most perfect French fries in the world.
Today I will introduce to you how to cook french fries at home without uncooked ingredients, as well as two kitchen tools designed for french fries. As a "sweet potato family", you should take action quickly.
Preparation steps:
1. Peel and wash potatoes, cut into long strips
2. Put in water and set aside
3. Put the cut potato strips into boiling water and cook for 3 minutes
4. Drain the water with kitchen paper and let cool.
5. Place in the refrigerator to freeze. (Be sure to remove the moisture before putting it in the refrigerator, otherwise it will form small lumps.)
6. Eat and fry after freezing. Put an appropriate amount of oil in the pot, heat it to 60% hot, add the frozen French fries
7. Fry until golden brown and take it out
8. Take it out and put it back in Fry for one minute, remove from the pan, drain the oil; sprinkle with salt while hot and dip in tomato sauce.
Notes:
1. The thickness of the fries can be cut according to the size of the fries eaten in KFC. It is best not to exceed one centimeter square;
2. Boil French fries in the pot. Do not cook them for too long or they will be too soft to form.
3. When frying French fries, fry them once first. You can re-fry them as often as you want. Do it while eating.
