]]> You might not think much of the potato skins on hand, but don’t be so quick to throw them away. This amazing recipe is a fun twist on classic fries and a great way to reduce food waste. Let’s jump in.

After peeling your potatoes for another recipe (like mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes), collect the leftover potato skins. Preheat your oven to 400°F.

Place the potato skins in a mixing bowl and drizzle them with olive oil. Season the skins with salt and any additional spices you like. Paprika, garlic powder, or a pinch of cayenne pepper are all great ideas.  

Toss the potato skins gently to evenly coat them with the olive oil and seasonings. Lay out the seasoned potato skins in a single layer on a baking sheet. 

Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. After 15 minutes, start checking the potato skins. Use a fork or tongs to gently pick up one of the skins and see if it’s crispy. If it’s not quite there yet, leave them in the oven for a few more minutes.

Once the potato skin fries are golden and crispy, remove them from the oven. Let them cool for a minute and enjoy.

]]> French fries are a great addition to almost any meal, but when it comes to delivery fries, they usually arrive cold and limp. Fries are supposed to be crispy and hot! Sure, you can still eat them like this, but they’re not nearly as tasty. With this hack, you can have leftover or delivery fries that taste like they came straight out of the fryer!

Instead of reheating them in the oven and waiting for the oven to heat up and the fries to get crispy, use a pan to reheat them. It takes less time and it’s much more efficient. It takes just minutes and your fries will be hot and crispy without being dry and burnt.

When reheating them in the pan, there’s no need to add oil. You’re not refrying the fries, you’re just reheating them. Besides, they already have tons of oil on them. Just toss the fries every 30 seconds or so to keep them moving. You’ll know they’re done when they start clanking around the pan. This happens because the moisture on the surface dries up.

Say goodbye to soggy, room-temperature fries and hello to crispy ones that taste like they’ve just been fried!

]]> Not everybody is a fan of McDonald’s menu, but it’s really difficult to find someone who doesn’t love their french fries! To this day, they offer the best combination of crispiness and flavor on the market. Is there a way to recreate them at home? According to Popsugar, there is.

“We decided to take a deep dive into what it takes to create these golden, salty, downright potato-y fries,” the outlet writes. “Thanks to intel from MythBusters’ Grant Imahara, we were able to dig into the process and figure out how to engineer the best french fry we could. Are you brave enough to try this at home? Watch our video to find out how to recreate the magic!”

The recipe uses Idaho russet potatoes, so we recommend you find them for the best result. The original McDonald’s fries require over 14 different ingredients, but this recipe is less complicated. Soaking the fries in the sugar water solution before cooking them sounds surprising, but it adds a lot of flavor. You may also wonder if it’s really necessary to remove the fries from the fryer when they’re half-done, but this is also necessary if you want to replicate the original taste and texture.

Will you try making you own fries or do you prefer grabbing some in McDonald’s instead?
