Do anyone know?

Question

How to make fries like Mcdonald's? LOL I know it's a dumb question but i love their fries, and i've tried everything but nothing works.

Answer 1

They put sugar and salt on them....and theyre one of the worst things in the world for you, so we probably cant even buy whatever they use to make them taste so good!

Answer 2

McDonald's fries are delicious and there is an interesting reason why we all love them so. Years ago, before we as a society moved toward frying in vegetable oils for health reasons, McDonald's cooked their fries in beef tallow, also known as straight up cow fat. While this may sound gross to us now, this was common practice just 20 years ago. This animal fat frying gives the fries a delicious flavor that cannot be reproduced with vegetable oil. But leave it to the chemists/chefs at McDonald's research and development kitchens to find a way around that problem. McDonald's fries actually have beef flavoring added to them during production. This is why there are many books written that explain how to make food like the fast food giants but McDonald's fries are rarely included. This beef flavoring is a closely guarded industry secret and these "beefy" fries are not available to anyone, anywhere except McDonald's. Notice most well informed vegans and vegetarians do NOT eat McDonald's fries. Check out an ingredients / nutrition list next time you have some of those delicious fries...

McDonald's� Famous French Fries

Special Tools

Deep fryer
French Fry Cutter
(or patience for cutting potatoes)

Ingredients:

2 large Idaho russett potatoes
1/4 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons corn syrup
1�-2 cups hot water
6 cups Crisco� shortening
1/4 cup beef lard (or save the fat from previously cooked burgers)
salt

Preparing your french fries

Peel the potatoes. In a large mixing bowl, combine sugar, corn syrup, and hot water. Make sure the sugar is dissolved. Using a french fry slicer, cut the peeled potatoes into shoestrings. The potatoes should be 1/4" x 1/4" in thickness, and about 4" to 6" long. (You can do this with a knife, but it is alot of work)
Place the shoestringed potatoes into the bowl of sugar-water, and refrigerate. Let them soak about 30 minutes.
While they're soaking, pack the shortening into the deep fryer. Crank up the temperature to "full". The shortening has to pre-heat for a very long time. It will eventually liquify. After it has liquified and is at least 375 degrees, drain the potatoes and dump them into the fryer. (be careful, it will be ferocious)
After 1 to 1 ½ minutes, remove the potatoes and place them on a paper towel lined plate. Let them cool 8 to 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
While they're cooling, add the lard or beef drippings to the hot Criscoï ½. Again, crank the temperature to full. Stir in the lard as it melts into the oil. It will blend in.
After the deep fryer is reheated to 375 degrees-400 degrees, add the potatoes and deep fry again. This time for 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Remove and place in a large bowl.
Sprinkle generously with salt, then "toss" the fries to mix the salt evenly. ( I suggest about 1 teaspoon of salt, maybe slightly more)
Serve hot, serve immediately, and enjoy! Depending upon the size of the potatoes, this recipe make about 2 medium sized fries.

Special Notes

Notes***** If you want more fries, double the recipe---but DON'T double the cooking oil. Just cook them in shifts, adding about 1/4 cup more Criscoï ½ and 1 tablespoon lard for the second batch.
Notes***** If cooking for a minute or so, removing, and returning the fries to the oil seems like a pain in the ***, that's because it is. But it is an important "blanching" step required for that great taste.
Note�***** For an easier clone of McDonald's french fries, you can use the frozen, pre-cut Ore-Idaï ½ shoestring potatoes. Just cook them in the same combo of Criscoï ½ and lard, skipping the "blanching" process. Cook them while still frozen for 6-10 minutes (depending upon the amount) until golden brown. They're good, but not nearly as accurate in taste and texture as the fresh recipe.

Answer 4

the best advice would be to buy the thin shoe string fries.. thaw them then deep fry them..

sucks.. if you dont have a deep fryer.. just put oil in a pan and get it hot.. then toss the fries on.

lots of salt after they cool!

McDonald's Confirms Its French Fries Are Made With Beef Extract
by Eli Sanders

SEATTLE - Facing a class-action lawsuit from angry vegetarians, McDonald's this week confirmed that its French fries are prepared with beef extract, a disclosure the company said is not new.

Although the fast-food giant has been saying since 1990 that its fries are cooked in pure vegetable oil, company spokesman Walt Riker said Wednesday that McDonald's never said its fries were appropriate for vegetarians and always told customers that their flavor comes partly from beef.




A class action suit has been filed for ''emotional distress'' caused to vegetarians, some of them vegetarian for religious reasons, who thought McDonald's fries were in line with their strong feelings about not eating meat.



The list of French-fry ingredients that McDonald's offers at its franchises and on its Web site includes potatoes, partially hydrogenated soybean oil and ''natural flavor.'' The list does not mention that the ''natural flavor'' comes from beef. To discover that, one would have to contact a McDonald's customer-satisfaction representative.


Harish Bharti, the Seattle lawyer who filed the suit against McDonald's Tuesday, said the confirmation that the company uses beef extract to flavor its fries validates his case.


Bharti argues that a reasonable person who heard that McDonald's fries are prepared in ''100 percent vegetable oil'' and read the list of ingredients would assume the food is suitable for vegetarians.


Yesterday, after news of his suit spread across the nation, Bharti said he was receiving hundreds of calls from vegetarians who think they were misled by McDonald's and want to join the suit. Some of them, he said, say they were told by McDonald's employees that the fries were vegetarian.


Beef extract, not beef tallow, as the suit alleges, is the only natural flavor in McDonald's French fries, Riker said. Asked why the company simply did not write ''beef extract'' on its list of ingredients, he replied, ''It's a good question. We're sensitive to all our customers' needs and concerns. We try to be as forthcoming and user-friendly as possible. We'll review it. We'll take a look at it.''


He added that using ''natural flavor'' as a synonym for beef extract is within federal Food and Drug Administration guidelines.


McDonald's French fries are essentially cooked twice. Central suppliers wash, steam-peel, cut, blanch, dry, par-fry and then freeze the potatoes that make the famous golden slivers. During the par-frying, ''a minuscule amount of beef extract is added,'' the company said.


Later, after being shipped to McDonald's franchises, the frozen fries are cooked in pure vegetable oil.


However, in countries such as India, where large numbers of people are vegetarian for religious reasons, McDonald's suppliers do not add beef extract to the fries, Riker said.


Bharti's suit seeks unspecified damages for the ''emotional distress'' caused to vegetarians, some of them vegetarian for religious reasons, who thought McDonald's fries were in line with their strong feelings about not eating meat.


Bharti said McDonald's contention that the information was available to people if they had only asked is insulting.


''Not only did they deceive these people,'' he said. ''Now they are claiming that all these people were deceived because they were stupid. This adds insult to injury.''
