Why fresh pre-fried fries are the best choice
Fries may seem like a simple product, but behind a truly good portion of fries lies much more than you think. Maybe you’ve wondered why one fry tastes so much better than another, or why some fries lose their bite after frying while others remain deliciously crispy. And what are the actual differences between raw fries, fresh pre-fried fries, and factory fries? Let’s take a look together, because those differences are certainly clear and noticeable. Not only in taste, but also in quality, cost, and the convenience in your kitchen.
Three types of fries: which one do you choose?
In the world of fries, you have roughly three important categories to choose from: factory fries, raw fries, and fresh pre-fried fries. Each type has its own unique characteristics, production process, and influence on the final result you serve to your guests. Whether you’re looking for convenience, flavor, or cost savings, it’s important to know which variant best fits your kitchen and your way of working. Because in the end, you want to serve fries that keep your guests coming back time and again.
Factory fries: easy, but at the expense of taste and quality
Factory fries are often the easiest choice. Large fry factories process all kinds of potatoes into one standard product. To make this possible, the fries are blanched and often coated. This ensures they have a longer shelf life and always look the same. But this does come at the expense of the pure potato flavor and the crispy bite that many guests love. Moreover, factory fries often contain a lot of moisture. So, you’re partly paying for water instead of real fries, which leads to flavor and weight loss that your guests can immediately taste.
Raw fries: pure, but more expensive than you think
Raw fries give you control over the frying process. It seems like the purest choice, but did you know that raw fries consist of about 40% water? This moisture needs to be cooked out, resulting in significant weight loss. Additionally, raw fries absorb a lot of oil during frying and require more gas and electricity. Frying also takes more time and machines wear out faster due to the extra work. As a result, the total costs and effort are often higher than you initially expect.
Fresh pre-fried fries: the perfect balance between taste and convenience
That’s why we at Boerderij Friet have chosen a solution that combines the quality of fresh fries with convenience and reliability: fresh pre-fried fries. In our automatic fryer, we pre-fry the fries, removing excess moisture so you get exactly what you pay for. One kilo of pre-fried fries is truly one kilo of fries! We take full responsibility for the pre-frying, including oil absorption and energy consumption. Then we immediately cool the fries back down to below four degrees, ensuring they remain fresh and of consistent quality for up to 16 days after production. Our fries are delivered in convenient bags of 2.5 kilos, ready to use and ideal for your kitchen. The result? Fries that taste better than factory fries, require less work than raw fries, and save you time and costs in the kitchen, while you can rely on the convenience and consistent quality of Boerderij Friet all year round. You only need to fry the fries and make your guests happy with a perfect portion. This way, you can focus on what really matters: satisfied customers who come back for that delicious taste.
