Crispy French Fries with Cheese Sauce - You Suck at Cooking (episode 150)

Crispy French fries with cheese sauce taste better than soggy French fries with nothing

Frying safety

This recipe is loosely based on French Fry Daddy J. Kenji López-Alt's recipe from The Food Lab which you can find here:

I can write out how I did it which is slightly different at some point tomorrow or the next day if you remind me.

As for the cheese sauce okay real quick...

1 tablespoon butter heated up medium low
Wangjangle in 1 tablespoon of flour until you have your roux (pronounced rouwks)
Slowly whiskjangle in a cup of milk as it clumps and you freak out then it turns smooth and you feel better
Take it off the heat and add in a cup of dismantled cheddar
add in a bit of garlic powder
and some freeze dried chives
If you feel like it
but you don't have to

It will thicken as it cools so don't cook it down too much. Just the perfect amount

I love the dedication here. No one else would make a miniature potato resort just for a bit.

You assembled a nudist potato beach set complete with sand and props for a 6 second gag, you're a legend

I love all of the educational material here, I never knew that the different cooking reactions happened because of science

[robertpaiva]

i love how he never makes any jokes when talking about frying because of how dangerous it can be

[dionea]

The "smash against the wall to peel potatoes/oranges/carrots" joke never gets old.

The fact that the microwaved potato had a hole in the middle gave me a concern about what he was planning on doing with it

[rockbagrz]

as someone who isnt french
this is a great introduction to their culture

[EinsNiemand]

Really loved the scientific explanations in this video. It's always great to learn both cooking and science while watching your videos.

My family immigrated from England in the 1800s, but we still make traditional English fries every night to perform our religious ceremonies and to bury our dead.

I also love microwaved potatoes with a hole in them, almost as much as a microwaved grapefruit with a hole in it.

That calendar that is shown for just one second and is full of jokes and callbacks is my favorite thing about this video!

[ДанилаИльичев-ды]

I love how YSAC's code for hello fresh is literally YOU SUCK. It became intimidating without "at cooking" part

[IronGordon]

I appreciate the amount of effort that went into this shot 00:45

True or false: thin fries are better than thick fries

[TalosBjorn]

This was fun but nothing will ever come close to the godly perfection of the French Fry Rap

1:43 I hope this crisper joke was an intentional pun on the genetic modifying system also known as CRISPR

[Treborbobuk]

One of the few creators where I happily sit through the ad/sponsor, keep up this great work!

[theluminousstarz]

6 years ago I discovered your channel. You have not only made me discover true joy in cooking, but also have kept me laughing throughout.

[Morpheus]

2:02 That hit me personally, and now I'm going to go resume my projects although it's difficult to see through my tears

[zibbitybibbitybop]

Still the only channel that consistently makes the sponsored ads funny enough that I'll watch them instead of skipping them.
