Worth Knowing

The perfect preparation in 10 steps

The following applies to all products: in order to achieve an optimal result, always follow the preparation instructions on the packaging.

  • Store French Fries at –18°C (–0.4°F).
  • Do not allow French Fries to defrost; do not refreeze defrosted French Fries.
  • Adjust amount of French Fries to the size of the deep fryer. The following applies: 100 g of product per kilowatt of deep fryer performance and per litre of fat.
  • Cook French Fries in high-quality fat; the fried products absorb the taste of the fat.
  • Do not deep fry the French Fries at temperatures that are too high. The optimal temperature of the oil is between 170–175°C (338°–347°F).
  • Only lightly shake the French Fries in the deep fryer. This way, you’ll avoid breakage.
  • Do not deep fry French Fries together with meat and/ or fish, since the flavour is transferred to the product.
  • Quickly serve prepared French Fries. After deep-frying, the crispiness of the French Fries continuously lessens.
  • Only keep small amounts of French Fries warm at the same time.
  • Leave the French Fries uncovered so that the steam can escape.
