Peel and slice the potatoes paper-thin with a mandolin or in a food processor. Soak the sliced potatoes in ice-cold water 5 minutes. (You can slice the potatoes ahead of time and hold them in water as long as 4 or 5 hours.) Drain in a salad spinner or lay flat on kitchen towels and pat dry. 2. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350 degrees. Meanwhile, thoroughly combine all the chip seasoning ingredients in a bowl. Fry the potatoes in batches until crisp and brown. Remove with a slotted spoon or use a spoon and strainer, and drain on paper towels. 3. Transfer to a large bowl and toss chips with chip seasoning while still warm. Serving suggestions: For best results, serve immediately. Good with burgers, sandwiches, or with eggs and chorizo for breakfast or brunch.

To render liquid fat from beef fat, cook it in a heavy saucepan over low heat, about 40 minutes or more. Discard pieces of fat which are left over. Add an equal part of vegetable oil to beef fat in pan. 2. Cut unpeeled potatoes into long strips about 1/4- 3/8-inch wide. Soak in a large bowl of ice water for about 45 minutes. Arrange on paper towels and carefully pat dry. 3. Heat oil mixture to 365 degrees. Add potatoes in batches so pan isn't crowded. Fry until they begin to look partially cooked, about 5 minutes. Remove and let oil return to 365 degrees. Return partially cooked fries and continue cooking until they are crisp and golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. Sprinkle with salt and serve immediately. NOTES FROM THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE TEST KITCHEN: When we asked where to find the best french fries, no one suggested homemade ones, which start with fresh potatoes instead of a bag of frozen sticks. Making french fries from scratch is a mighty effort, raising the question of whether the end justifies the means, so the Tribune test kitchen endeavored to find an answer. With no apologies to nutritionists, we decided to follow the conventional wisdom that beef fat is the best way to make good-tasting fries and to try using less saturated vegetable oil. We got beef fat from the butcher, a big bag of Idaho spuds and a bottle of vegetable oil to do some experimenting. Some basic tenets we accepted as truth: The potatoes would be cut by hand with the peels on. They would be soaked in ice water for 45 minutes. They would be painstakingly patted dry. They would be fried twice. The wild cards: What's the best oil to use? Is it worth all the effort? Beef fat won hands down-no contest. Beef fat fries were crisp and delicate. They were not greasy and had a subtle taste. People said it smelled as if we were cooking Christmas dinner, which we took to mean they were used to standing rib roast for Christmas, not french fries. Those fries were gobbled up. On the =============== Reply 26 of Note 1 ================= Board: FOOD BB Topic: FOOD SOFTWARE Subject: Z-MM POTATO MEGA - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nutr.

Wrap well in foil and put them in the oven. Put the onions on a double sheet of foil, but do not wrap them; put them in the oven. Pierce the potatoes in several places with a thin skewer or the tines of a fork. Put them directly on the oven rack. Bake the garlic for one hour and the onions and the potatoes for an hour and a half at 425. After an hour pull out the garlic heads, unwrap, and let cool for 5 minutes. Separate the cloves and squeeze them over a bowl so the softened garlic pops out into the bowl. After 1 1/4 hours, pull out the onions and potatoes. If the onions are not very soft (almost collapsed) put them back in for a few minutes. Perforate the potatoes lengthwise and crosswise with the tines of a fork and squeeze. Scoop the potato flesh into a bowl and mash it with a potato masher. With a sharp knife, cut off the stem and root ends of the onions. Remove the skin and the first layer. Put the oni ons in a food processor and puree. Combine the potatoes, garlic, onion, 1/4 cup of cream, and salt and pepper in the bowl of a mixer. Beat (with the paddle blade) until smooth and blended, then scrape the mixture into a large gratin bowl. Sprinkle the top with cheese. (The recipe can be made ahead to this point and kept in the refrigerator, covered, for a day or so. Bring to room temperature before proceeding.) Reduce the oven temperature to 350. Pour the remaining cream over the mixture. Bake, uncovered, for 40 - 50 minutes, or until the top is browned and bubbly and the cream has cooked down to a very thick suace-like consistency. Try to arrange to have some leftovers; this is very good when it is cold. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nutr.
