Once you start cutting your own fries you will never look at  a bag of frozen potatoes the same again.  Fresh cut french fries have a much better taste, texture and in my experience are preferred by customers over the mass produced frozen fries any day of the week.  It may take a little “trial & error” to get the oil temperature and cooking time dialed in but once you get the proper time and temperature you will be cranking out fresh delicious fries that your customers will devour.  In the long run, pound for pound, fresh cut fries are less expensive to produce than frozen fries.  Sure you have to pay someone to cut the fries (but admit it, the kid is making minimum wage), but frozen fries require more energy to produce vs. the fresh cut… no freezer storage needed with fresh potatoes, fresh cut fries minimize cooking time as well as reducing the recovery time of your commercial fryer.  Cutting your own fries gives you the ability to be creative with your menu, for instance what about sweet potato fries or maybe apple sticks (not fried) for the kids menu… french fry cutters are inexpensive and easy to maintain so stop buying those bagged fries and increase your profit along with your customer’s satisfaction.  To see just how easy it is check out Emeril’s Perfect French Fries Recipe, although I don’t peel mine…

Agree or disagree?  Do I need to be corrected?  Did I miss something?  If so leave a comment below…
