While potatoes originated in South America, the concept of frying them as 'fries' is widely attributed to Belgium. American soldiers stationed in Belgium during World War I supposedly tasted these fries and mistakenly called them 'French' fries. Seasoning evolved over time with regional preferences and the availability of spices.

The primary flavors are savory, salty, and sometimes subtly sweet, with a satisfying umami depth. The seasoning amplifies the potato's natural flavor while adding complexity.
The flavor profile hinges on the combination of potato, oil, and seasoning. Common seasonings include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika (smoked or sweet), cayenne pepper, and herbs like rosemary or thyme. Different oils impart different tastes; vegetable or canola oil are neutral, while peanut or duck fat offer richer flavors. The potato itself provides a subtle sweetness and earthy undertones.

Potato Selection
Use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold for the best texture. Lower moisture content yields crispier results.
Double Frying
Fry the potatoes at a lower temperature (275°F/135°C) initially to cook them through, then fry again at a higher temperature (375°F/190°C) to achieve maximum crispiness.
Seasoning Timing
Season the fries immediately after they come out of the fryer, while they're still hot and the oil helps the seasoning adhere. Toss thoroughly for even distribution.
Oil Temperature
Maintaining consistent oil temperature is crucial. Use a thermometer to monitor and adjust as needed. Overcrowding the fryer will lower the temperature.
