Ever wondered how to achieve the perfect crispy fries at home? The secret lies in a simple kitchen ingredient: vinegar. Adding vinegar to your cooking process can help create fries that are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. This method is popular in many restaurant kitchens and ensures that your fries come out perfectly every time.
