While both Belgium and France claim to be the birthplace of fries, the consensus leans towards Belgium. The story goes that during a particularly cold winter in the Meuse valley, the rivers froze over, preventing locals from catching fish, their usual fried fare. They turned to potatoes as a substitute, cutting and frying them in a similar manner.

The primary flavor profile of fries is savory and salty, with the underlying taste of potato amplified by the cooking oil. Seasoned fries offer a wider range of flavor experiences.
Regular fries typically rely on the natural taste of potatoes, enhanced by salt. The specific type of potato used (Russet, Yukon Gold, etc.) impacts the flavor slightly. Cooking oil also plays a role; traditionally, beef fat was used for a richer flavor, but vegetable oils are more common now. Seasoned fries can incorporate a variety of spices and herbs like paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, rosemary, thyme, or even sweeter spices like cinnamon and sugar for sweet potato fries.

Potato Selection
Choose starchy potatoes like Russet or Idaho for the best results. These potatoes have a higher starch content, which contributes to a fluffy interior and crispy exterior.
Double Frying
Double frying is a crucial technique for achieving optimal crispiness. Fry the potatoes at a lower temperature first to cook them through, then fry them a second time at a higher temperature to achieve a golden-brown, crispy exterior.
Salt After Frying
Salt the fries immediately after removing them from the oil. This allows the salt to adhere better to the fries while they are still hot and slightly greasy.
Seasoning Timing
If making seasoned fries, toss the hot fries with your desired spices and herbs after salting. Ensure even distribution of the seasoning for consistent flavor.
