Fresh-cut French fries.
My friend Craig, from worstpizza.com, took me to Authentic Brooklyn Pizza in Boca Raton, Florida. Pizza is not my favorite thing in the world, but I know Craig loves it, so I didn’t mind the restaurant choice. Imagine my surprise when I learned about that the pizza joint was much more than a pizza joint. I was ecstatic to learn about all the other menu options.
I ordered a salad, but saw that French fries were also on the menu. When I learned that they were fresh-cut fries, I knew I had to try them. The owner explained the process. He soaked them in water. Next, he fried them once at a lower temperature and let fries cool down. Finally, the potatoes were fried at a higher temperature to make them crispy. I thought, “By golly, this is exactly how I would make my French fries.”
The taste was amazing. They were crispy, salty and fresh-cut. I was still in shock that a pizza joint put that much effort into making fresh-cut, crispy French fries, but I am not complaining. Anytime Craig wants to visit Authentic Brooklyn Pizza, I will definitely join him.
