so, i just tried boil vesus no boil. both are good, but boiling them gave the fries a lighter, less-dense texture. i like fries that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

To the ones who wanted them boiled-forget it! These are fried. (and I have had them both ways You DON'T boil them first if you are going to fry them!
Even better are to slice them like potato chips (thin and fry them. Delicious.
