     Title: Shoestring Fries (Julienned Potatoes)
Categories: Five, Potatoes
     Yield: 4 servings

          Oil for deep-frying
     4 lg Russet potatoes
          Salt & pepper

MMMMM-------------------------TOPPINGS-------------------------------
          (As desired)
          Garlic salt
          Chiilli spice mix
          Cumin
          Crushed dried rosemary
          Grated Parmesan
          BBQ spices
          Seasoning salt
          Cajun spices
          Smoky paprika

 Place oil in a large, deep, pan, Dutch oven, or deep
 fryer. Attach a deep-fry thermometer to monitor the
 temperature and heat oil to 350ºF/175ºC.

 While oil is heating, wash and peel potatoes and remove
 any dark spots.

 Using a mandoline slicer fitted with the julienne blade
 and slice potatoes into matchsticks.

 Place sliced potatoes in a large bowl of ice water and
 chill 10 minutes.

 Remove potatoes from water bath and place on paper
 towels or clean dish cloths to dry completely. Pat the
 potatoes dry or use a salad spinner, if available. The
 dryer the potatoes, the less excess splattering there
 will be.

 Once oil is 350ºF/175ºC, place dried potatoes (1 cup at
 a time) in the oil and stir to separate them. Adjust
 temperature to keep it as close to 350F as possible. To
 avoid oil flare-ups, DO NOT add too many potatoes at one
 time.

 Fry 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 minutes or until dark golden brown.
 Watch closely and stir often.

 Transfer cooked potatoes with a slotted spoon to a
 paper-towel covered surface and season with salt and
 black pepper. If desired, add other spices or seasonings
 at this time.

 Repeat process until all potatoes are fried.

 Allow potatoes to cool completely, then store in an
 airtight container. The potatoes will stay crispy and
 crunchy at least 3 days and probably more.

 Serve as is or with a side of sweet, hot mustard, bbq
 sauce or dip of your choice.
