Whats the problem with using "wrong" type of potato for french fries? I used RIVIERA potatoes. First boiled them, rest overnight in a fridge then fried them. Some of them came out crisp but majority got easily burned and were all around soggy. It's the issue with the potato or with the process?

First of all, Riviera potatoes? Riviera potatoes are waxy, not starchy. They hold their shape well, yes, but they contain far too much moisture and far too little starch. Which means instead of crisping up like a proper fry should, they just weep.
Now, as for your process... boiling then refrigerating? I suppose next you'll tell me you seasoned them with Himalayan pink salt? You par-cook fries with a blanching fry, not a boil. You gently fry them at a lower temp to cook the interior, then chill, then fry again at a higher temp to crisp the exterior. It’s called double frying, not double boiling like some sad bistro experiment.

Double frying is a better way for sure. But if you were to boil, add vinegar to the water to prevent the fries from breaking apart as much, it’ll make a small difference. Also, yes you chose a bad potato.

>the process
Do not boil, first fry at 140 celsius, let it cool off, then fry a second time at 170 celsius.

I think almost all of the world uses Celsius as it's superior to Fahrenheit. You wouldn't know that as a sheltered and naive little manlet. Get the sand out of your mangina

I like soggy fires because you can really taste and feel the grease better than the crispy ones.

i hope you an ignorant zoomer. boiling and steam drying is a well known method of preparing potatoes for frying

I've never used the term before but you are the very definition of a midwit. You know enough to have some points but still fall far short of the mark. You're so midwitted that you don't even know why I'm calling you that and far too arrogant to even ask.

Fuck you. I am the best Chef there ever was.

Next time use galagorange potatoes.

being non-dutch: is it cultural appropriation to eat them with mayonnaise?
