where do you draw the line on fries?

Between 4 and 5, but they need to be Crinkle Cut Master Race.

>> No.18742822

Anything beyond 5 is inedible.

Crinkle cut is most certainly not master race. You're a fucking toddler if you think increasing surface area on a french fry means anything.

Anything past 3 tastes burnt. Fries can taste burnt with a surprisingly light color compared to other types of potato foods like hash browns.

>Fries can taste burnt with a surprisingly light color compared to other types of potato foods like hash browns.

that happens because of reused oil, usually when one of the previous batches was left on too long. if that same oil is used then even fries cooked and taken out on time will have the same burned taste.

If they were skin-on or raw potato like five guys I'd say 6 or 7. If it's par fried and straight from the freezer like most fast food places, then anything past 4 is no good.

4, though I'd eat 5 if they came out of an airfryer. Regular fried 5 is just too much though

Generally the peak is around 4 or 5 but if you want the average fry to be good some will inevitably end up at 9. I call it a "burnt offering".

not that guy, but crinkle cut are the worst. They are almost always soggy and limp. And when they're not, they're 14000 degrees inside, so you burn your mouth the entire time eating them, or you're eating cold fries, which both suck.

>> No.18744169

When I fry them at home, I aim for 4 but typically wind up with 5 because I forget about carry-over.

Why the fuck are they in the parking lot?
And the answer is 5 or 6
1-3 looks kinda raw
4 is a russian roulette between good and gummy
7 - 9 look the same to me, but I would go for them If I'll run out of 5 and 6
I would use 10 as charcoal and have a BBQ. Oil is a great fuel source

Fuck off crinkfaggot. Crinkle cut fries are NEVER crispy, don't even try and argue otherwise. Worse than that, they still have that raw, mushy, potato taste. You're a retard and a child for thinking crinkle cut is any good. I bet you're the kind of smoothbrain to like bendy straws, even though they're objectively shit and break down at a stiff sip.
