My mum doesn't allow fries and burgers and 'that ultraprocessed junk' in our house! Never had fries tbh, are they good? I mean I see loads of people going to restaurants and especially McDonald's and I know lots of places do fries/chips (says my bff) so I guess they have to be good right?
@PaisleyParker since you never ate them this is the best way to describe them:
Imagine taking a bite into something that starts with a satisfying crispness. Your teeth will gently break through a thin, slightly firm outer layer, almost like a delicate shell. This initial crunch gives way to a soft, fluffy, and slightly starchy interior. It's warm and yielding, almost like a very light and airy baked potato that's been cut into a long shape.
Now, let's talk about the taste. The dominant flavor is that of cooked potato, which is subtly earthy and naturally a little bit sweet. However, the magic often lies in how they are prepared. Usually, they are lightly salted, which enhances the potato flavor and adds a savory touch.
Depending on how they are cooked and what they are seasoned with, you might also experience:
A hint of oiliness or butteriness: This comes from the cooking process, adding a richness and making them feel satisfying.
A slightly browned or roasted flavor: If they're cooked a bit longer, they can develop a pleasant, almost nutty undertone.
The taste of the oil they were fried in: This can range from neutral to slightly more distinct depending on the type of oil used.
Overall, a good French fry offers a delightful contrast between the crunchy exterior and the soft, pillowy inside. The taste is primarily savory and potato-y, often enhanced by salt and a touch of richness from the cooking oil. They are generally considered a very comforting and satisfying food.
Think of it like a crispy, salty cloud of potato that melts in your mouth after the initial crunch.
Yup that was long

@PaisleyParker also tell your mom to make them home made this is how:
- Cut the potatoes into long thin rectangular prisms.
- Put the potatoes in a baking tray.
- Add VERY LITTLE cooking oil.
- Bake till they are ready (Yellow but not black)
Enjoy, this is the healthiest way i know to recreate the taste
