👨‍🍳 Instructions

Peel and slice potatoes lengthwise into stick 1/4-inch thick. Place in a bowl, cover with water and refrigerate 16 hours.

Drain potato sticks and lay out on dish towels to dry.

Be sure they are completely dry before frying.

In a deep-fryer with a candy thermometer clipped to the side, heat 2-inches of peanut oil to 300°.

Add just enough potatoes to cover the base of the frying basket, and cook until slightly limp, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.

Do not brown.

Lift basket and drain fries.

Transfer potatoes to a baking rack and separate sticks.

Repeat with remaining potatoes. Increase heat to 375°.

Again, add potatoes in batches to the oil. Fry until chestnut brown on edges and crisp.

Drain and transfer to a bowl lined with paper towels.

Immediately season with salt, tossing to coat.

Serve.

Yields 4 servings.
