The history of French fries is somewhat debated, with both Belgium and France claiming their origin. The popular theory suggests that they originated in Belgium, where villagers along the Meuse River traditionally fried small fish. When the river froze over in winter, they turned to frying potatoes instead. The term 'French' fries became popular through American soldiers stationed in Belgium during World War I, who believed they were in France.

The flavor profile is a balance of salty, savory, and creamy, with the crispy potatoes providing a neutral base for the rich garlic sauce.
The French fries offer a simple, earthy potato flavor enhanced by frying, typically resulting in a crispy exterior and fluffy interior. Salt is a key seasoning. The homemade garlic sauce contributes a strong, pungent garlic flavor, balanced by the creaminess of the sauce's base, often mayonnaise or aioli. Additional ingredients like lemon juice, herbs (parsley, chives), or spices (pepper, paprika) can enhance the garlic sauce's complexity.

Potato Selection
Use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for the best French fry texture. Soaking the cut potatoes in cold water helps remove excess starch, resulting in crispier fries.
Double Frying
Double frying is key to achieving crispy fries. Fry once at a lower temperature (around 300°F/150°C) to cook the potatoes through, then a second time at a higher temperature (around 375°F/190°C) to achieve a golden-brown and crispy exterior.
Garlic Sauce Intensity
Adjust the amount of garlic in the sauce to your preference. Roasting the garlic before adding it to the sauce can mellow its flavor.
Fresh Ingredients
For the best flavor, use fresh garlic and high-quality mayonnaise or aioli as the base for your garlic sauce.
