Title: McDonald's French Fries - Copycat
Categories: Potatoes
Yield: 3 Servings

MMMMM---------------------------BRINE--------------------------------
8 c Cold water
1/2 c Corn syrup
3 tb Salt
1 ts White vinegar

MMMMM---------------------------FRIES--------------------------------
6 lg Russet potatoes; 4.5 lb
1 qt Oil
1/2 c Vegetable shortening
Salt

Combine the brine ingredients and set aside.

Peel and rinse that potatoes.

Slice them into strings just under 1/2". (A french fry
potato cutter makes this easy.)

Place them in the cold brine as you slice them. Ensure
the potatoes are completely submerged. Add more cold
water if needed.

Cover and place the brine in the fridge for 2 hours or
overnight.

Drain and rinse them twice with cold water. Pat them
completely dry.

Heat oil to 300ºF/150ºC. A dutch oven and oil
thermometer is very helpful.

Fry the potatoes in batches for about 5 minutes. Remove
with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towels. They
will be very soft. (This is a good thing.)

Add the vegetable shortening and increase the heat to
400ºF/205ºC. Fry in batches again until golden brown.
(It’s hard to be patient during this part.)

Remove and place on paper towels. Season with salt
right away and serve!

their accountants, that is)
