French Fries

This recipe is from Anthony Bourdain and it's a bit of work, but well worth it!

Ingredients:
Potatoes
Peanut Oil
Salt


First peel and cut the potatoes to french fry size and then place in ice water from 30 minutes to overnight.  I did it for about an hour.

Then there is the first fry stage, where you cook the potatoes in batches in 280 degree peanut oil about 5 minutes each.  Let them rest for about 15 minutes after that and then fry in 375 degree oil.  You will need plenty of paper towels to sit them in to soak up excess oil.  When done, add fries to a big bowl and toss with salt.
