Method
Preparation of Fries
Cut Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into fries, about 1/4 inch thick.
Soak Potatoes
Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry.
Heat Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
Fry Potatoes
In batches, fry the potatoes until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Season Fries
While the fries are still hot, sprinkle with salt and toss to coat.
Togarashi Seasoning
Combine Seasoning
In a small bowl, combine shichimi togarashi, sesame seeds, crushed nori, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
Season Fries
Once the fries are ready, sprinkle the togarashi seasoning over them while they are still hot. Toss to ensure even coating.
