I have purchased a industrial sized french fry cutter....now what? From everything I see if you just throw them in the fryer, you get soggy/oily fries. I have been told to soak them in cold water before frying to prevent them from browning prematurely. Any help is appreciated.

It may or may not work but I think I read that if you boil them a little first then fry them they will come out good. I guess if they are already cooked in the center then just fry to brown.

What kind of oil are you using?

Many many many moons ago... about 6 years haha... I used to work at McDonalds and Wendys..... we only used Vegetable oil for the chicken and fish...

Okay. I know this one. Saw it on America's Test Kitchen just the other day. It was part of a Fish and Chips recipe.
Multistep process but it looked really good.

Good luck.

You've got to fry em twice. Use peanut oil. You can strain and reuse it, too.

I cheat and buy the Ore-Ida extra crispy crinkle cuts and just bake them in the oven.......... ...........You don't have alot of fat content when baking like you get from oils............on a healthy side that is.......

cut them smaller--the bigger the fry the harder it is to get it crispy----drop em in a 400 and use peanut oil-----

Try this... take what you cut, put in a bowl and mix them with some olive oil, then spread on a bakeing sheet and sprinkle garlic salt and peprika.. bake at 400 for 20 minutes or so.
