    Utensils Used
    | 1. Cut fries as desired. | 2. Soak COVERED with cold water for 2-3 hrs (more won't hurt - this dispenses with the starch that keeps them from browning nicely). | 3. Blot dry. | 4. First fry - in batches AT *300* degrees until just tender (yes, this is a lower temp than you would think). | 5. When all are done with first fry, toss gently, but well, with seasonings. | 6. Second fry - Increase oil temp to *400* degrees, frying until golden & beautiful. | 7. ALTERNATIVE TO FRYING: | 8. In boiling water, place fries in & boil 3 minutes - no longer! | 9. Set aside to cool, toss with seasonings. | 10. On baking sheet sprayed with light mist of oil, place potatoes so they are not touching each other. | 11. Spray them lightly with oil. | 12. Bake in preheated 450 degree oven for 18 - 24 minutes until golden & crunchy. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
