We were clearing out the hard drive as we continue to produce Season 2 and we discovered a yet-to-be-published gem. Call it the "Lost French Fry Episode." Marcus and Chef Matthew go all in on why fries hit so hard, the science behind potato happiness (there is a reason we love them), and which cuts actually deliver. They break down toppings, poutine philosophy, and the chef-level method for making PERFECT  fries at home.

Parboiling, drying, starching, freezing, air frying, shallow frying: t’s all here. A full, step-by-step guide straight from the kitchen at 25 Lusk righ to your house.
