This here is 100% correct and really the best way to make "fries". I also do them in a pan on the grill when I am cooking the meat.
Sweet tater tots almost definitely require a fryer to get them perfect. They'll always be different than regular spuds though.
Picked up a little air-fryer yesterday and tried it out today. Threw some Yukon gold I had lying around sliced into wedges in there and they came out not too bad at all. Definitely not a "french fry" but I also like it better not soaked in grease I've noticed that I've not used my microwave in probably almost 2 months...so this might be a good replacement for it. I've heard its not the smartest thing to heat/reheat food in the microwave, not sure the validity of it.
I use them all them time, they are blanched and actually fried before the iqf freeze them. It's different when you cut a fresh potato, toss it in the oven and expect anything close to a french fry. Most boats I work on don't have fryers, the whole ocean waves moving hot oil thing. I use those ore ida bags when I cook burgers or someone wants a french fry
Shutup. Ain't no farm anywhere in the South growing gotdamn asparagus lol. Fkn carpet bagger. Go back to Maine. Never in my life seen okra and asparagus in the same house.
Whoa whoa whoa there, Betty Cracker. Best be showing a bit more respect to the Pine Tree State than suggesting your illegitimate twin brother is from up heah.
Perhaps not "bad" for you is the correct term. They do prefer more starchy "vegetables" in the south don't they?
