How to make the perfect McDonald's fries

Any cook can cook french fries at home. If you follow the basic rules of cooking, the dish will turn out no worse (and sometimes much tastier) than in fast food restaurants.

Details

One of the main questions asked by gourmets is: “Do you need to pre-boil the potatoes or just fry them?”

Professionals say with confidence: you can't do without boiling. Moreover, this is the only recommendation that should be taken into account.

How to properly prepare potatoes

The diced vegetable should be sent to a container filled with low-temperature water. This half-hour procedure is necessary to remove excess starch.

Next, the nightshade should be thrown into boiling water. The pre-cooking process should not last long: there is no need to bring the dish to readiness yet. You should turn off the heat a few minutes after the water in the pan has boiled.

The liquid in which the potatoes are cooked should have the following additives: vinegar (a tablespoon per liter of water) and salt (half a tablespoon per the same volume). After cooking, place the potatoes on a paper towel to absorb excess moisture.

How to fry French fries

The partially cooked vegetable should be dropped into a container of boiling oil.

The French fries are considered ready when they have a crispy crust. This usually takes at least 1 minute.
