Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

PLAN/PURCHASE
2 tsp ancho chili powder
1 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
1 tsp salt, kosher variety, fine grind
1 tsp coconut sugar
1 tsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • 1. PREP/PREPARE
  • 2. Storage of homemade condiments and spices Because homemade spices and condiments do not contain any preservatives, it is important to store them properly. Non-reactive (glass) containers with tight-fitting lids are a must. If I am making a dry spice, I love to use old spice bottles that I have run through the dishwasher. If I am doing homemade sauces, I love using Weck jars. They are all glass, come in all sizes and shapes, and have excellent leakproof lids. If you shop online, you can go to Amazon, and type in "Weck Jars" and you will find a ton of them. Dry spices should be kept in a cool space, away from sunlight (spice cabinet), and sauces, in most cases, should be stored in the fridge. If properly stored this spice mix should last up to a year.

  • 4. The cayenne pepper gives it its heat, so you might want to play with that ingredient. Possibly by starting with half the amount and going from there.
  • 5. If you want all the ingredients to be uniform, you might give it a few pulses in a spice grinder; however, it is not necessary.
  • 6. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
  • 7. Mix all the spices together, and then store in a non-reactive jar, until needed.
  • 8. PLATE/PRESENT
  • 9. Sprinkle over freshly baked fries for a yummy treat or try it on something else and let me know how it goes. Enjoy.
  • 10. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

PETE'S FRENCH FRY SEASONING



Pete's French Fry Seasoning image

This is a recipe my husband created when we were out of all season salt, now when frying up tator tots or french fries we only use this seasoning mix!! Since we don't have a deep fryer, we usually pan fry our tator tots and then toss them with this seasoning. They taste awesome!! We use sea salt so that the sodium isn't as high. If you choose to use regular salt you may need to adjust the amount of salt added to get the right taste. Also tastes great on hashbrowns or diced potatoes!!

Time 5m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 teaspoons coarse sea salt
1/2 teaspoon dry onion
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning or 1/2 teaspoon creole seasoning
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/8 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning

Tips:

  • Experiment with different herbs and spices: The key to creating a delicious French fry seasoning is to experiment with different herbs and spices. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and oregano. You can also add a touch of sweetness with brown sugar or maple syrup.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients in your French fry seasoning. This will give your seasoning a more vibrant flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Toast your spices: Toasting your spices before using them in your French fry seasoning will help to release their flavor. Simply heat a small skillet over medium heat and add your spices. Toast them for a few minutes, stirring constantly, until they are fragrant.
  • Store your seasoning in an airtight container: Once you've made your French fry seasoning, store it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. This will help to preserve its flavor and freshness.
