Have you ever discovered something that became indispensable and wondered why you didn't think of it before? That's exactly how I felt when I bought this French Fry cutter.
I've been making French Fries at home for decades. Although it's worth the effort, I always dreaded the chopping process. I wasn't a perfectionist, but I did try to cut them uniformly so that the french fries would bake in the oven evenly and each one would be crispy and browned.
Then, one day, a light bulb went off, and I thought, "There must be a tool for this." Sure enough, two minutes later, I found it on Amazon for $19. Click, ship, and two days later, I was making fries in minutes.
That evening, I peeled eight large Idaho potatoes - I wish there were a tool for that too, but with a wide-edge vegetable peeler, peeling potatoes goes pretty fast.
Then, I set the timer while my husband used the new fry cutter to dice the potatoes. It took just under three minutes. Thrilling.
To save even more time when you are making fries, you can keep the skin on. Did you know that the skin is nutritious? "The more color in the potato, the more antioxidants it contains. On top of that, the skin of the potato can have up to 12 times more antioxidants than the flesh. So don’t be afraid to eat your potato skins." Web MD. Try red skinned or purple potatoes for an exciting change.
