ThreeDJ16 Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 The best french fry season in the world is to take half Tony Chachere's (http://www.tonychachere.com/) and half sugar (I kick it up a little more with extra cayenne) and sprinkle this blend on fresh cut fries as soon as they come out of the fryer. Then dip them in ranch dressing - OMG that is good. Sounds really weird having sugar in a fry season, but once you get over thinking it sounds really odd and actually try this, you will be freaked out by how good it is. -=Jasen=-

ThreeDJ16 Posted August 9, 2006 Author Report Posted August 9, 2006 I'm sure Maj will tell us how they are...he's got plenty of faith in your recipes Don't be chicken, the next time you have fries, mix up a little and try it. It is a rare thing if I use ketchup now; just this season and ranch. One thing I forgot to mention; I like the season a bit finer for dusting the fries, so I place the season in my trusty mortar and pestle till fine (not necessary, it just seems to coat better). -=Jasen=-
Curly Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 I don't think I've ever in my life made french fries
ThreeDJ16 Posted August 9, 2006 Author Report Posted August 9, 2006 I don't think I've ever in my life made french fries Dude, that is just wrong!! Make some for your young'in!! It only takes a minute to slice up a tator (real thin for crispy ones). The real thing is way better than frozen! -=Jasen=-
Firemonkey Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 I will give these a shot, but the best fries in the world are definitely skin-on fries that are liberally doused with apple cider vinegar and a nice dusting of Old Bay. Ill put those up against anything!

Ill put those up against anything! I never said peel mine in the above recipe - I always leave skin on. I like vinegar fries too, they have their place (fish & chips - Mmm). But these are my favorite ones. Make sure you dust them immediately after you shake the oil off or the coating will not stick. I use real ranch, none of that low fat or low calorie BS! Man, I want some now! -=Jasen=-
Firemonkey Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 My son would always dip his fries in ranch when I stopped at Hooters to watch a game. (now I have sunday ticket and a K..., if only I could find some hooters girls to open my beers for me ) I kind of thought he was nuts, since I dipped mine in Three Mile Island wing sauce. Ill try it...maybe he was onto something.

Ill try it...maybe he was onto something. Then try my kicked up version by adding cayenne to the season. I also make a flaming ranch by doing the same (and a few drop of habanero sauce to it - not much as it messes with the ranch flavor if you add to much of any hot sauce). -=Jasen=-
Firemonkey Posted August 9, 2006 Report Posted August 9, 2006 You are talking about Tony's Cajun seasoning, right? I just want to be sure, cause they make several spice blends.
ThreeDJ16 Posted August 9, 2006 Author Report Posted August 9, 2006 You are talking about Tony's Cajun seasoning' date=' right? I just want to be sure, cause they make several spice blends.[/quote'] Yeah, they call it original. I am just used to calling that one Tony Chachere's - hehe - I forget about all the rest. Frankly, the only other one of the seasons I like is the "More Spicy' and it would be good in this recipe. The herb blend kinda sucked. -=Jasen=-
