Fries
Umami Aioli
Method
Fries Preparation
Cutting the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thick strips, about 1/4 inch wide.
Soaking the Fries
Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
Cooling the Fries
Let the fries cool for at least 10 minutes.
Second Fry
Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C). Fry the potatoes again in batches for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.
Umami Aioli Preparation
Making the Aioli
In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, soy sauce, lemon juice, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Chilling the Aioli
Cover the aioli and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
