FRENCH-FRIED POTATOES
Steps:
- Peel potatoes, one at a time, cut into strips the length of the potato and 3/8-inch wide, letting each fall into cold water. When all the strips are cut, soak 10 minutes in cold water. Drain and pat dry on paper toweling.
- Heat shortening or oil to 330 degrees, add potatoes, about 1 cup at a time, and fry 2 minutes until lightly golden and all sputtering stops. Drain on paper toweling. Potatoes can now be held until just before serving. For the second frying, heat fat to 375 degrees, and fry, on third of the potatoes at a time, 5 minutes until crisply golden.

Steps:
- Peel and rinse the potatoes. Then cut them into sticks by cutting the potato in 4 or 5 vertical pieces, and then cutting each piece into sticks.
- Place them in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow them to soak, 2 to 3 hours. (You can also stick them in the fridge and let them soak overnight.)
- When you're ready to make the fries, drain off the water and lay the potatoes on 2 baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot with paper towels to dry them.
- Heat a few inches of oil in a heavy pot to 300 degrees F. In 3 or 4 batches, cook the potatoes until soft, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. They should not be brown at this point! You just want to start the cooking process. Remove each batch and drain on new/dry paper towels.
- Once all the potatoes have been fried at 300 degrees F, turn up the heat until the oil reaches 400 degrees F. When the oil's hot, start frying the potatoes in batches again, cooking until the fries are golden and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
- Sprinkle with sea salt and dive in!
FRENCH FRIED POTATOES
These are the best French Fries - the sugar solution has something to do with the carbohydrates, but by doing it they don't soak up so much grease, so they get crunchy.

CHEF JOHN'S FRENCH FRIES
I don't think most people realize that any decent French fry needs to be twice fried. The first frying in done at a lower temperature, which softens the potato and prepares the starchy surface for the second frying's crispification.

Steps:
- Peel the potatoes and cut each into 1/4-inch thick slices. Stack a few slices at a time and cut the slices lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide strips or sticks. There should be about 6 cups. Drop the potatoes into cold water and drain almost immediately. Pat the potatoes dry.
- Heat the oil to 330 degrees in a skillet or, preferably, a deep fryer. Drop potatoes in batches into hot oil. As the potatoes are fried, shake or stir them so that they cook evenly. Let cook 10 minutes without browning. This might be done an hour or more ahead of time. Remove the potatoes from the oil and let drain.
- Increase the oil temperature to 375 degrees. Return the potatoes to the oil and let cook until crisp and brown, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Remove the potatoes and drain on absorbent paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and serve.
