One of the best things about going to Greece is that almost every restaraunt in the country has homemade and fresh cut French fries! This is the ultimate treat and tastes waaaay better than any French fry that you can eat anywhere else in the world. The key to making these at home is soaking the cut potatoes in ice water before cooking them and frying them twice. The first story is quick, and should only make the potatoes a pale yellow. Let the potatoes sit for 5 minutes and then fry again until golden brown.

The water is such a necessary step, it helps make the fries so crispy! I didn't know that twice frying could also help get the fries crispy. Excellent tip.

I've recently embarked on a culinary quest to explore the rich and diverse world of Greek cheeses. From the tangy feta found in traditional Greek salads to the sizzling delights of halloumi, Greece's cheese culture seems incredibly vast and flavorful.
