Crispy Fries Made Perfect: The Vinegar Trick You Need to Know (Page 2 ) | July 10, 2025

Seasoned Fries: Add your favorite seasonings, such as garlic powder, paprika, or black pepper, to the fries after they are fried and drained. This adds an extra flavor dimension.
Sweet Potato Fries: Substitute regular potatoes with sweet potatoes for a healthier variation. Follow the same soaking and frying process for the best results.
Baked Fries: For a healthier, oil-free version, toss the soaked potato strips in olive oil and bake at 425°F (220°C) for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through.
FAQ:

Why should I soak the potatoes in vinegar? Soaking potatoes in vinegar water removes excess starch, which can cause fries to turn soggy. The vinegar also helps in making the fries extra crispy.

Can I skip the soaking step? While it’s possible to skip soaking, it’s highly recommended if you want truly crispy fries. Skipping it may result in fries that are not as crispy and might stick together during frying.

Can I use other types of vinegar? Yes! While white vinegar is the most common choice, apple cider vinegar can also work well for a slightly different flavor profile.

How can I make my fries spicier? After frying, toss your fries in a mixture of chili powder, cayenne pepper, or your favorite hot spice blend to add some heat.

Can I make these fries in advance? You can prepare the potatoes by soaking them ahead of time, but it’s best to fry them just before serving to keep the texture at its best.
