      12 minutes to show you how to make potato chips?
      French people have no respect for people’s time. When you arrive to dine at their place, that’s when you realise they haven’t cooked anything yet. You will be chatting and drinking wine for 2h at least while waiting for the food to be ready. By that time it is already 9.30pm or 10pm. They will make you wish you never accepted their invite.

    For anyone wondering about putting them in the fridge, a fridge is effectively a slow dehydrator. Anything left unsealed in your fridge will dry out over time. This results in the outside of the fries having low moisture which makes them crisp up and brown nicely. You can do the same thing with something like a steak. Salt it, put it on a rack, and leave it in your fridge for several hours. This is actually called "dry brining" and will let your steaks develop an incredible crust.

    I've only watched a few of his videos, but my favorite thing is his bit of indecision, followed by pure instinct. You can tell how long he's been cooking. He's like, oh, I'll just put a few fries in at a time. And then, boom, the entire batch. Or 'ahh, it's done' followed by 'maybe four more seconds... maybe 7." Always accompanied by his little under-the-breath chuckle. He's so damn charming.

    Chef Jean-Pierre is the epitome and inspiration of culinary arts. What makes him special is his big heart, humor, passion for cooking, love of family, and cultural background. He draws me closer to my Mediterranean origins, my French as a second language, and the love of my family, especially the cooking and flavors I learned from an early age. My grandpa was a chef and I guess it runs in the family to a certain extent. What Chef JP managed to do, was not only teach me to learn more basics and techniques, but also bringing back memories and passions. Chef JP is truly special and a reminder of what makes America great - people like him. I usually don't post multiple comments, however, felt the need to summarize it all in this one. Merci beaucoup Chef, God bless you, and hope to meet you in person one day. Regards, Tony.

    Chef. As a Belgian I can say you're absolutely right. Mussels and fries are an umami combination. The Dutch produce most of the mussels in the Oosterschelde, but the Belgians eat about 80% of the harvest. They are found in cafés and 3 michelin star restaurants. We have aced preparing mussels. It's one of our national dishes. And the other ones are fries. We even have a museum for food trucks and stands where fries have been made through the years. Your recipe of fries is dead on. For mussels you have alot of different preparations. White wine, cream, à la Provençale, garlic,.... But the true way is to use onyo (of course) and celery. One bayleaf and lots of finely grind black pepper all prepared in buttah and a dash of olive oil. First put one layer of mussels on the buttah and oil, then onyo and celery and pepper, repeat until the pot is full and put on the lid. 10 minutes full gas, shake the pot 2 times with the lid on and ready. You are left with amazing mussels and at the bottm of the pot the mussel soup is waiting. Then we prepare a mussel sauce. Mayonaise with mustard and mussel juice. That's all. Enjoy.

    Back in the ‘60s I worked at McDonald’s when we made French fries from real potatoes. I opened the store on weekends and I would prepare 900 lbs of potatoes before the store opened at 10:30 am. We had a mechanical potato peeler and a manual fry maker that would turn our Russet potatoes into fries. Then I’d fill the sink with water and wash wash wash until the water was clear. Then I’d drain them and put them in baskets to drain and then it was time to blanch them at 275. Then the baskets would go on the rack all ready for the store to open. We’d finish frying them (at 360, I think). I literally made tons of fries that way until they switched over to frozen fries. Essentially, Mickey D’s cooked them the same way as you showed us on your video, Chef. We always used the Russets because they have the highest solid content, about 20% as I recall. Sometimes, when we couldn’t get the Russets, we would use a California Long which was a pretty good substitute. I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the good work.

    Very good tutorial on how to make perfect French Fries! Thanks for sharing.
    For anyone who wants to put the fries in a bag and take them to a neighbor or something like that,...make sure you don't sal the fries directly after they come out of the oil. Only do this if you are gonna eat right away. (cafeteria's in Holland make this mistake, always ask for unsalted fries). The salt will pull the moisture out of the fries,...when sealed in a bag (paper bag,..what so ever), the condensation will fall back on the fries, making them soft.

      Actually , they are coming from the Netherlands, Zeeland province...they have the best mussels in the world, and most of their mussel export goes to....Belgium, think it's over 90% ! I'm from Belgium Jean Jaques, glad to hear you also like the mussels....i'm surprised about the season...mussel season usually starts begin of July...anyway...enjoy !

    Dear Chef Jean-Pierre, Thanks for the lesson on cooking fries: I really appreciate your specific and basic tips such as telling us how to cut the potatoes, advising us to soak them in ice water, and then -after the first fry-placing them in the freezer. I also appreciate you telling us what temperature to heat the oil. Thanks !❤️😀

    They look great! So basically, you're just precooking them before you put the finishing touch of crispy brown goodness. I do a similar thing; I boil the potatoes for just under 10 minutes to cook/soften them up until they're soft but firm and I finish them in the oil afterwards. They're almost like mashed potatoes on the inside, they're so soft.

    I love your program Chef, and I have used some of your recepies to the delight of my friends. As a Belgian, I was very curious and excited about this one. My mother had a restaurant and cooked what should be of course called Belgian fries as such. First of all, use the right potatoes: firm and yellow, tasty like you would want to eat the raw. We call them Bintjes. Cut at about 12 or 13 milimeters thickness. Ideally, use animal fat, 'blanc de boeuf' for the best taste, or a solid oil like you usually recommend. I've been to the Périgord where they cooked them in duck fat. Amazing. Blancher, cook the inside to a kind of mashed potatoe readiness, at about 140 degreees Celsius as you did, let them cool down - you don't need a fridge, but I see your point - and then make them yellow-brownie and crispy at about 180 degrees Centigrade. No need to get the oil too hot, it burns the carbs to a degree where you're actually schorching them. Unhealthy. If ever fries were healty. Wait until they start singing. That sizzling sound that you'll recognize when they are ready. And than put them in a colander. Add salt - I never do, because I love the taste of potatoes over salt - and shake, shake, shake... This will get the salt all around and the fat away. The Belgian way of making mayonnaise is different from the French. We use much more oil and egg yoke so that you have a soft, creamy sauce with that little touch of vinegar and mustard. Serve fries with a beef stew as a meet dish, smothered in Belgian dark beer, a piece of mustered layered dark bread as a binder (carbonnades à la flamande), and chocolate as dessert. You just won't know what just happened to uou... And this is how the Belgians conquered the world :-)

    • @qualitytraders5333
      @qualitytraders5333 Před měsícem

      Exactly. Of course the fries aren't French but Belgian or Dutch. I make them thicker and thus the frying time is longer. The first fry has to be a little higher, let's say 145 Celsius. No fridge needed. Room temperature is sufficient. Second fry about 160 Celsius. They're ready when they start to float and sing. In Belgium or The Netherlands you get them with mayonnaise or other toppings. Not ketchup.

    • @letXeqX
      @letXeqX Před 9 měsíci +1

      You may need a higher temp. The oil needs to chase the water out of the potato. If you have an air fryer similar, though not quite as good fries are possible without having to boil a pot of oil.

    The 2 fryings are essential for frying in order to have fried but not burnt food..
    It is also important for fried spring rolls which, like fried potatoes,
    can have the first frying several days before the final frying.

    In Belgium we often eat fries with Beef Stew (made with brown beer of course) too. Or another favourite combo (amongst students) is with Apple Sauce and a half of a Rotisserie Chicken.
    But yeah, definitely try the Mussels combo!

    Great video as always Jean Pierre. Just a safety point to avoid oil overflow that can result in a fire. Hope you don’t mind.
    Use an 8 quart pot
    Only fill 25% of pot with oil since the oil and bubbles expands and the oil rises.
    Adding the potatoes also makes the oil rise.
    That way you can control the frying and avoiding a potential fire.
    Using an 8 quart pot will allow you to fry more fries.
    FYI I only use an electric cooktop for my 8 quart pot since I have found that gas cooktops cannot maintain the temperatures consistently.
    I’ve been cooking fries at home for 38 years and having French fry parties because everyone loves fries…. They forget to eat the proteins.
    Happy Cooking 🧑‍🍳
