I’m back from my vacation and I have to tell you it was fantastic! The weather was just perfect, for the beach, it’s sunny, for an excursion, it’s a bit colder and cloudier! On the vacation, I decided to rather just enjoy my time than taking pictures of everything so there’s no big vacation gallery to show. However I ate some unbelievably delicious meal, so those will most likely inspire some of my recipes in the future!

Also now I’m excited about my big news (from last post), yet I’m afraid a bit. So the big news is I’ll be back to school from September. It’ll makes blogging a bit difficult, but I hope I’ll be able to cope with it. So from September I’ll have my full-time job, my part-time blog and I’ll be a correspondent uni student.
I’d be grateful for some tips and advice!

But now back for the delicious and well-seasoned Baked French Fries!

The Secret:

1. Soak the potato strips in cold water for at least 10-15 minute and changed the water half time. This way you wash the excess starch off the stripes and they won’t stick to the baking sheet and together. Makes sure you dry them afterward with paper towels.
2. I seasoned them before I baked them. The salt in my season mix help the french fries to dev

If you want to freeze them for later, now it’s the time to do it, just after you spiced them. For freezing, use a tray and make it sure you left enough space between the fries, so they can freeze nice and quick separately. After they freeze, put them in a Ziploc and store them in the freezer.

Just like I’ve already explained in my (most popular) Perfect Oven Fried Chicken recipe, I terrible with hot oven, pans, oil…generally with anything hot. So that’s why I try my best to avoid frying in oil and I bake instead. Also not negligible that it’s way healthier this way and you avoid the stinky oil smoke!
