Quade Oliver

Report

This French Fry Seasoning blends onion salt, paprika, garlic powder, and a selection of dried herbs to create a balanced, savory rub for fries. The combination of spices adds depth and a mild heat when cayenne pepper is included, enhancing both fresh homemade and frozen fries. It is designed to be brushed or sprinkled onto fries before baking or immediately after frying to deliver flavorful seasoning with a complex herbal backdrop.

Description

The BEST EVER French Fry Seasoning Recipe combines onion salt, paprika, parsley, garlic powder, oregano, thyme, basil, black pepper, and optional cayenne pepper to produce a versatile spice blend that complements fries. When applied to fries, either baked or deep-fried, the mixture imparts a savory and slightly aromatic flavor profile due to the blend of herbs and spices.

For baked fries, using olive oil to lightly coat the fries before seasoning helps with even browning and adherence of the seasoning, resulting in a flavorful crust after baking at 400°F for about 20 minutes. For deep-fried fries, the seasoning is added immediately after removing fries from hot oil, ensuring it sticks well and maximizes taste.

The mix is intended to be made in bulk and stored in spice jars for easy access. This seasoning allows transforming simple fries into a seasoned side with layered flavors derived from herbs and spices commonly found in savory cooking.
