Found an article on how to make McDonald's style fries at home [View all]

Normally I wouldn't hit a dog in the ass with a sack of McDonalds, but there's one thing McDonalds seems to do right and that's their french fries. I've been making fries at home for decades usually using the double fry(350/375F) method, but the frustrating part is I've never been able to achieve a result as good as McDonalds. My cheap fry cutter finally broke for good and I needed another, so I decided to do a bit of research on McDonalds fries and found this article:

I've ordered a more heavy duty cast iron french fry cutter than my old plastic POS, so when it comes in I'm going to give this a try. The new cutter seems like it will be more trouble to clean and sanitize, but since I should be able to make them in bulk and freeze them, this shouldn't be much of an issue.
