If I actually had a decent set up for frying it'd be a lot less bullshit, but I'm using a normalish cast iron skillet and well.... Yeah.

Also thanks McDonalds for the thing with acidic water for parboiling helping preserve the pectin.

@IrisKalmia The difference between good fries and bad fries is so huge! There's a little bistro kinda place here that makes the good fries and I don't want any other kind anymore
