Nooooooooo the secret must remain secret
The secret of Belgian fries is that they’re the same thing as French fries. Frying them twice has always been the best way to make them. Most places just don’t bother with the extra effort.
But beef fat? Son, if you want the best fries you need duck fat.
I remember visiting friends in Ghent and while I waited them to finish work I went to the Christmas market all excited to try Belgian fries.
The first place I went to had a shelf with part cooked fries, and I thought to myself “I’m not eating reheated fries. They’ll be horrible.”
When I told my friends later they laughed and one dragged me out of the bar and straight to the fries stand.
Good god, was I wrong!!
narrating like he wants to fuck a deep fat fryer ffs
When he was talking about the different sauces, out of context you could convince me he was talking about drugs.
Why is the narrator trying to seduce me?
I need a version of this here in the UKwith chips.
Anyone of the google maps of Steve’s fry stand?
The secret to perfect anything, is animal fat.
Voice-over: shut up.
Steve: I will come by one day.
Why is this flemish man speaking french to a german broadcast who publishes in english?
Belgian here, better start spraying Belgian mayonaise on that shit, will blow your mind. Also a potteke sate kruiden. Frieten speciaal curry ketchup is so delicious…
Top tier Australian/NZ/UK fish and chip shops be like, “u wot m8?”
ahh the good old days when chips were cooked in fat … then along came the heart foundation and they said we need to transition to vegetable oils “it’s better for your heart”
then capitalist business tycoons got together and pushed seed oils as superior for cooking
Couldn’t watch past the second time they said “French” fries.
I was all pumped to try Belgium fries on my first visit.
Universally, they were all worse than my two regular chicken shops in Sydney.
Made me both happy and sad.
In my opinion, when talking about the secret of the Belgian fries, people always forget the part of the secret that is the potato. Fries are made with the [bintje](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bintje) variety here, which are rather floury potatoes. If you don’t have bintje available, chose potatoes you would use to make a purée, they are likely to make decent fries if you follow the other advices.
The voiceover actor uses a breathless intonation that makes you think he is auditioning to be the narrator of a podcast about real crime murders.
If you ever find yourself in the Reeperbahn in Hamburg, seek out a fries joint called Anny Fries. I don’t know how they do it, but they made hands-down the greatest french fry I’ve ever tasted in my life. So good that I think about them constantly, and it’s been 7 months since I visited.
The best fries 🍟 I ever had were whenever I skipped class in 8th grade. There was a dairy belle two blocks away from my catholic school. I’d get fries fresh out the fryer and savor them on the ride home on the metro bus.
