French fries in a deep fryer - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can use an air fryer. Adjust the cooking time to about 15-20 minutes at 400°F, shaking the basket halfway through for even crispiness.
Russet or Idaho potatoes are ideal due to their high starch content, which yields a crispy exterior and fluffy interior.
Potatoes are naturally gluten-free, but ensure your fryer oil hasn’t been used for gluten-containing foods to avoid cross-contamination.
Yes, par-fry them for 5 minutes, cool, and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Re-fry for 3-5 minutes before serving for optimal crispiness.
Use oils with high smoke points like peanut, canola, or vegetable oil for the best results and flavor.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to restore crispiness.
Yes, freeze par-fried fries in a single layer on a tray before transferring to a freezer bag. Fry directly from frozen for 4-6 minutes.
Try garlic powder, paprika, Parmesan cheese, or truffle salt for extra flavor. Toss with seasoning while fries are still hot.
Dry potato wedges thoroughly before frying and avoid overcrowding the fryer basket to ensure even cooking and separation.
